Based on the blockbuster novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code introduces Robert Langdon, a professor of religious symbolism at Harvard. Whilst in Paris to deliver a lecture he arranges to meet the curator from the Lourve. The curator never shows and later that night Langdon is awoken in his hotel room by the French authorities. The curator is dead and Langdon quickly becomes a suspect. A race against time ensues as he tries to prove his innocence and solve a two-thousand year old mystery.
