Silent (stylized as SILENT or ƧIᒧƎИT) is the first short film of HM to have made it aired online, even when a pandemic is going on. It was written and produced by Parrissianne Bell and directed by Haruto Miyano, released on September 2019. The following year, 2020, HM made three reboots of the short film, called Silent: Screens, Silent: Looking Glass, and Silent: Voices respectively. In early 2021, they released a fifth reboot called Silent: Horizons, which is the last installment of the said franchise.

The Silent pentalogy revolves around Amalea Takumi, which is played by Amree Aguinaldo, along with Cj Sanchez as Miles Davidson, Jace Blanchett as Jasper Glass, and Kaela Giddings as Arwen Coleman, introducing Daniel Alba as Calian, and Belle Bello as Kalina Morales.

## **Plot**

The plot of all Silent reboots follow Amalea Takumi as the protagonist (for 1-4) and Miles Davidson as the protagonist for the last reboot. Someone gets kidnapped (Kalina, Amira, their younger selves, their future selves, and finally Amalea herself), and they turn to the Black Widow (the name for the Dark Web) for answers. Kalina is found being tortured by her captor who turns out to be their principal, Amira gets kidnapped by a doctor in order to do experiments on her, their younger selves are trapped in mirrors being tortured by their phobias, their future selves are scared to move forward because of their tragic past, and Amalea being tortured to push her into insanity and become a mind-slave.

## **Cast**

## **Trivias**

* The Silent pentalogy's first film was created back in September 2019, when the Chrysalis was still named as RVLTN, that's the reason why this article is a stub, and is incomplete with information (notice how there are no wiki page links for the characters).
* Strangely enough, the last reboot, Silent: Horizons has more views than the original film.
	+ This may be because it was the last installment, and that Amalea is now the victim instead of the protagonist, which switched things around from Amalea to Miles.
* Silent and Silent: Screens were the only ones that were filmed in the studio. Looking Glass, Voices, and Horizons were filmed individually by the cast using their own gadgets in their own homes. Hale, Bell, and Miyano were in charge of editing the footage together to create one film.
* All reboot titles end with an 's'.
	+ Silent: Looking Glass is the only reboot title to not be a plural form.
