Paris 1911. Desperate to cure her sister, intrepid authoress Adèle Blanc-Sec braves ancient Egyptian tombs to locate a mummified doctor and get him back to Paris. Her hope is that Professor Espérandieu, an oddball, will then use his unusual powers to bring the doctor back to life so he, in turn, can use his centuries-old skills on the unfortunate sister. In Paris however Espérandieu is already causing mayhem, having brought to life what was a safe museum egg but is now a very active pterodactyl.
