English Summary:

The Living Daylights is a 1987 British spy film and the fifteenth entry in the James Bond film series produced by Eon Productions, and the first to star Timothy Dalton as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. Directed by John Glen, the film's title is taken from Ian Fleming's short story The Living Daylights, the plot of which also forms the basis of the first act of the film. It was the last film to use the title of an Ian Fleming story until the 2006 instalment Casino Royale.

James Bond is assigned to aid the defection of a KGB officer, General Georgi Koskov, covering his escape from a concert hall in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia during intermission. During the mission, Bond notices that the KGB sniper assigned to prevent Koskov's escape is a female cellist from the orchestra. Disobeying his orders to kill the sniper, he instead shoots the rifle from her hands, then uses the Trans-Siberian Pipeline to smuggle Koskov across the border into Austria and then on to Britain.

In his post-defection debriefing, Koskov informs MI6 that the KGB's old policy of 'Smiert Spionam', meaning 'Death to Spies', has been revived by General Leonid Pushkin, the new head of the KGB. Koskov is later abducted from the safe-house and assumed to have been taken back to Moscow. Bond is directed to track down Pushkin in Tangier and kill him, to forestall further killings of agents and escalation of tensions between the Soviet Union and the West. Bond agrees to carry out the mission when he learns that the assassin who killed 004 (as depicted in the pre-title sequence) left a note bearing the same message, "Smiert Spionam".

Hungarian Summary:

Egy ismeretlen alvilági szervezet sorra gyilkolja a nyugati világ legjobb titkosügynökeit, megbontva ezzel a kelet és a nyugat hidegháborús, langyos egyensúlyát. Bár az akció kétségtelenül a szovjetek malmára hajtja a vizet, kivételesen nem a KGB keze van a dologban, hanem egy köpönyegforgató orosz tábornoké, akinek egykor még maga James Bond segített nyugatra szökni. A 007-es ügynöknek azonban most el kell kapnia a tábornokot, akihez csak egyetlen módon kerülhetnek közel: ha megtalálják egykori barátnőjét, Karát, a cseh csellistalányt. Bondnak először őt kell kiszöktetnie az országból, majd rá kell jönnie, mire is megy ki a dolog. Kalandjai során ópium- és fegyvercsempészekkel hozza össze a sors és belecsöppen az afganisztáni háború közepébe...
