While
in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert
Langdon (Tom Hanks) receives an urgent
late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the
Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near
the body, police have found a baffling cipher. Solving
the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover
it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works
of Da Vinci - clues visible for all to see, and
yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. Langdon
joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist,
Sophie Neveu (AudreyTautou), and learns
the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion
- an actual secret society. In a breathless race
through Paris, London and beyond, Langdon and Neveu
match wits with a faceless powerbroker who appears
to work for Opus Dei - a clandestine, Vatican-sanctioned
Catholic organization believed to have long plotted
to seize the Priory's secret. Unless Langdon and
Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time,
the Priory's secret - and a stunning historical
truth - will be lost forever.
