За време пословног боравка у Паризу, професор симбологије Роберт Лангдон (Том Хенкс), прима хитни ноћни телефонски позив: Жакес Саунијер, кустос у Лувру, је убијен. Код његовог тела полиција је пронашла збуњујући симбол и треба им помоћ стручњака. Током дешифровања те загонетке, Лангдон открива низ трагова скривених у делима Леонарда Да Винција. Лангдон се удружује са талентираном француском криптологињом Софи Нев (Аудреy Тату) и сазнаје да је покојни кустос био члан тајног друштва у коме су били Њутн , Ботичели, Виктор Хуго и Да Винчи. У трци кроз Париз и Лондон Софи и Роберт се надмудрују са непознатом особом која као да предвиђа сваки њихов корак. Уколико њих двоје не дешифрују замршену загонетку на време, древна тајна и експлозивна историјска истина биће заувек изгубљена
