Synopsis for "The Dark Knight Rises"
Eight years after the events of The Dark Knight, the Gotham City Police Department is hunting Batman. They consider him a villain because he claimed responsibility for Dent's crimes (so the people would have a hero).
Following the death of District Attorney Harvey Dent, Police commissioner James Gordon gives a speech. Batman must face the villain Bane, who seeks to destroy Gotham, and discover the truth regarding the "enigmatic" Selina Kyle. When Batman gets defeated and captured how will he escape?
