“Amelie meets Indiana Jones!” – Empire Magazine
From revered filmmaker Luc Besson (The Fifth Element, La Femme Nikita) comes the extravagant and wildly vivid adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec, the coolest author and adventurist in all of Paris.
The year is 1912. A 136 million-year old pterodactyl egg, housed on a shelf in the Natural History Museum, has mysteriously hatched, unleashing a prehistoric monster onto the Parisian streets. But nothing fazes Adèle, when she finds a connection with the ancient reptile and reveals many more extraordinary surprises…
Based on the acclaimed historical fantasy books by Jacques Tardi, The Extraordinary Adventures Of Adèle Blanc-Sec follows this intrepid adventurer as she uncovers mysterious Egyptian treasures, attempts to tame a wild pterodactyl, eludes dangerous enemies and braves a formidable phenomenon to save her ailing sister.
