SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
In 2054, Paris is a labyrinth where all movement is monitored
and recorded. Cut off from the world for its own protection,
the city has nonetheless continued to expand. Now, 21st century
skyscrapers overlay centuries-old architectural masterpieces.
And below street level, a sophisticated network of streamlined
plazas push up against the city’s ancient, deteriorating
tunnel systems. Casting a shadow over everything is the city’s
largest company, Avalon, which insinuates itself into every
aspect of contemporary life to sell its primary export –
eternal youth and beauty.
When 22-year-old Ilona (Romola Garai), one of Avalon’s
most promising scientists, is abruptly kidnapped, Avalon calls
on Barthélémy Karas (Daniel Craig), a Paris
cop with a hard-fought reputation for finding anyone, no matter
what sacrifices he has to make along the way. As the trail
gets hot, Karas senses he’s not the only one looking
for the beautiful enigma, and every witness he digs up seems
to turn up dead.
To find Ilona and unlock the secrets of her disappearance,
Karas must plunge deep into the parallel worlds of corporate
espionage, organized crime and genetic research – where
the truth imprisons whoever finds it first and miracles can
be bought but at a great price.
