Sean Connery is leading the investigation
For reference, “The Name of the Rose” takes us to 1327, to a Benedictine abbey where the monks are disappearing. The Franciscan, William of Baskerville, assisted by the young novice Adso von Melk, leads the investigation. This is a time when the Church finds itself in the midst of a crisis in the dispute over its spiritual and material power. This is also the height of the Inquisition.
The duo’s investigation stalls, while another death, just as strange, mourns the public. Gradually, Guillaume comes to believe that the key to the secret lies in a library where access is regulated.
