"Many years after the rapture… Among the survivors, some are driven to renounce their sin of Speech."
In a world where no one speaks, a devout female hunts down a young woman who has escaped her imprisonment. Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, Azrael is due to be sacrificed to pacify an ancient evil deep within the surrounding wilderness.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/azrael-review-a-dialogue-free-horror-that-thrives-on-visuals-and-samara-weavings-magnetic-performance/
"Azrael is characterized by the absence of dialogue and a dense visual narrative, challenging viewers to interpret every detail. E. L. Katz's direction, combined with Mart Taniel's captivating cinematography, creates a mysterious, immersive atmosphere, though it doesn't always balance the story's ambiguity with the need for emotional impact.
Nonetheless, Samara Weaving's magnetic performance is the true pillar that holds the movie together, making it a compelling experience with several memorable moments of horror and violence, even if some of its more abstract elements may frustrate part of the audience.
An audacious, artful work with enough entertainment value to satisfy mainstream viewers."
