Plot Summary: "Quantum of Solace" continues the high octane adventures of
James Bond (Daniel Craig) in "Casino Royale."
Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest
mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M
(Judi Dench) interrogate Mr White (Jesper Christensen) who reveals the
organization which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than
anyone had imagined.
Forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a
case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille
(Olga Kurylenko), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight
to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a ruthless business man and major force
within the mysterious organization.
On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers
that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most
important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano
(Joaquin Cosio). Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his
powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to
overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General
control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land.
In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in
a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible
for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the
terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his
organization
