The
year is 1954, at the height of the Cold War, when U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo
DiCaprio) and his new partner Chuck Aule (Mark
Ruffalo) are summoned to Shutter Island to investigate the implausible
disappearance of a brilliant multiple murderess from a locked room within the
impenetrable Ashecliffe Hospital. Surrounded by probing psychiatrists and
dangerously psychopathic patients on the remote, windswept isle, they arrive
into an eerie, volatile atmosphere that suggests nothing is quite what it
seems.
With a hurricane bearing down on them, the investigation moves
rapidly. Yet, as the storm escalates, the suspicions and mysteries multiply
each more thrilling and terrifying than the next. There are hints and rumors of
dark conspiracies, sordid medical experiments, repressive mind control, secret
wards, perhaps even a hint of the supernatural, but elusive proof. Moving in
the shadows of a hospital haunted by the terrible deeds of its slippery
inhabitants and the unknown agendas of its equally ingenious doctors, Teddy
begins to sense that the deeper he pursues the investigation the more he will
be forced to confront some of 2 his most profound and devastating fears. And he
realizes that he may never leave the island alive.
