Write a short summary. Who are the main characters, what concepts do they stand for? Assess the role of the library in the film between the changing world of the Middle Ages and the rise of Humanism. What do the library and its books stand for? What is the role of William of Baskerville and his associates in this environment? Pay close attention to the way he investigates the murders and the instruments he uses.

Who do you sympathise with most? Why? For what general idea does William of Baskerville stand for in your opinion, thinking about the ultimate message of the film (how does this relate to our own time?).
