In the heart of Paris, Marie-Laure's world is one of tactile memories and sounds, as she navigates life without her sight alongside her father, the keymaster of a myriad of locks at the Museum of Natural History. Her father crafts a detailed miniature of their neighborhood to guide her steps, but their lives are upended when the Nazis invade Paris. At twelve, Marie-Laure and her father seek refuge in Saint-Malo, in the home of her secluded great-uncle, bringing with them a jewel of immense value and peril from the museum.
Meanwhile, in a German mining town, Werner, an orphan, is captivated by the magic of a found radio, which becomes his gateway to a world beyond. His knack for understanding the mechanics of radios secures him a spot in the harrowing Hitler Youth academy, and later, a mission to dismantle the resistance. As Werner's journey brings him closer to the brutal realities of war, his path is set to intersect with Marie-Laure's in the besieged city of Saint-Malo.
