Silk is a timeless romance film with multiple plot twists and beautiful scenery, complimented by keystrokes of a piano that sends chilling melodies and harmonies with the corresponding scenes. The actors and actresses portray the issues they are faced with as if their 1860s world is our present time, and yet they preserve the vintage and classic-esque feeling so the viewer doesn't feel the motion picture is "out dated."

Silk takes modern day situations and brings them back to a time where things were simpler, yet just as difficult. It interprets romance, traveling, family, and even topics that are hard to cover without being controversial.
