One walked cautiously, alert to the spaces of black silence.

In the black silence, he heard the rhythmic slurps of air from his wife.

There was just this black, moody silence that shut me out.

And after that I floated in another vast, black silence.

The film ends with 24 minutes of black silence.

Day was a twilight and night was a black silence.

For weeks and months he never made a sound, in the black silence eating his very soul.

But movement had taken place under cover of that black silence.

Was death annihilation, a black, endless silence, and peace at last?

The emotion he generated about him in those moments was a pit of black silence.
