Silent Cry is one of the latest releases of Mount Zion Film Productions. The story revolves round a man, Pastor Joseph Mayowa who does not have time for his family. He devotes his whole attention to his secular work and his church.

This attitude of negligence is greatly affecting his wife and their two children. Mrs Mayowa secretly bears the pains of her husband's unbecoming attitude alone especially as she does not want to expose her husband's behaviour to the church congregation. Despite this, the duo counsel other couples and mend their broken homes.

Along the line, Pastor Mayowa's old time girl friend in secondary school, Moji, meets him after they have lost contact for about 24 years. Moji pressurizes him to refresh their old time love but Mayowa refuses all her advances with the reason that they are now both married and more so that he is now a born again and even being a Pastor. However, this does not stop Moji from continuing to pester Pastor Mayowa.

The last plan of Moji is to trail him from Port-Harcourt to Lagos, where the latter has been invited to preach in a sister church. Moji craftly 'smuggles' herself into his hotel room. This leaves the innocent Pastor puzzled as he wonders how the woman gets to know about his programme and even knows the hotel he's being accommodated.

Meanwhile, serious battles ensue between the two of them in the room. His host Pastor, Joel, later meets Moji in Pastor Mayowa's room and Pastor Joel reports the matter to Pastor Philips, the General Overseer of his church and after an emergency Ministers meeting, he is suspended.

During the spiritual incarceration, Pastor Mayowa changes his attitude towards his family and the suspension is lifted and he gets restored back to his pastoral work. This 95-minute movie proffered solutions for everyone passing through situations they cannot share or discuss with people.

Silent Cry features artistes like Israel Ore-Adewole, Florence Adegunle, ace gospel singer, – Tope Alabi, Lekan Asikhia and many others. The executive producers are Evangelists Mike and Gloria Bamiloye. Elvon Jarrett directed the movie.
