Darren Atlas, A painter in his mid 30’s studies the painting of Mona Lisa trying to figure out what made that painting so special. Later on Darren comes up with his own theory about Mona Lisa,stating that the human mind can come up with faces that the human eyes have came across at some point in the humans mind,and he believes that Da Vinci is the first painter to ever paint a face that never existed,which is Mona Lisa. Darren soon becomes inspired by the idea and tries to pull off what Da Vinci did by ordering his partner to bring an unknown female with her face fully covered so he can do the impossible that Da Vinci pulled off. But soon inspiration transforms into obsession and things go out of hand which changes his life completely.
