Plot – Seven years have passed since Dr. Hannibal Lecter has escaped surveillance and ten years since FBI Agent Clarice Starling has interviewed him in the institute of maximum security. Lecter is now at large in Europe where he pursues his interests, savoring smells and tastes of a world without bars. Starling has never forgotten her meeting with Dr. Lecter, whose cold voice still echoes in her nightmares. Even Mason Verger remembers Dr. Lecter and he's obsessed with revenge: he's been Lecter sixth victim and despite he has survived the doctor's attack, now he's horribly disfigured. Verger soon realizes that to attract the doctor he must use a lure to which Lecter cannot resist: Clarice Starling herself.
