Storyline
It's 1954, and up-and-coming U.S. marshal Teddy Daniels is assigned to
investigate the disappearance of a patient from Boston's Shutter Island
Ashecliffe Hospital. He's been pushing for an assignment on the island
for personal reasons, but before long he wonders whether he hasn't been
brought there as part of a twisted plot by hospital doctors whose
radical treatments range from unethical to illegal to downright
sinister. Teddy's shrewd investigating skills soon provide a promising
lead, but the hospital refuses him access to records he suspects would
break the case wide open. As a hurricane cuts off communication with the
mainland, more dangerous criminals "escape" in the confusion, and the
puzzling, improbable clues multiply, Teddy begins to doubt everything -
his memory, his partner, even his own sanity.
