Suggested by user_214973
Clarice Starling is a young FBI agent who has fallen in disgrace after a failed mission where a partner of her died and many others were put in risk. The newpapers and the FBI itself apparently has forgot about her past heroism and actions that make her famous: Seven years ago, Clarice saved a senator's daughter who was almost murdered by a serial killer and to do that, she had to some interviews with another serial killer, the cannibal and doctor Hannibal Lecter, before this one escaped. When the agency is searching for Lecter again, Clarice has to make a interview with Mason Verger, who was almost killed by Lecter, apparently for information of where he could be; but it's a trap made by Verger to take a vengeance against the psychopath who is hidden in Italy and who has interest in Clarice herself. Now Clarice has to find Lecter and protect him besides of capture him before the Verger's men and the people interested in the reward that verger is offering (including inspector Pazzi of Florence and Krendell, Clarice's superior and principal enemy) do. Obviously, Hannibal Lecter isn't going to make them too easy and probably, they will fall in his own game
