Il film è ambientato negli anni 70 e racconta la storia di George Smiley, un ex agente del MI6 ormai in pensione, alle prese con la nuova vita fuori dai servizi segreti. Quando un agente caduto in disgrazia gli rivela la presenza di una talpa nel cuore del Circus, Smiley è costretto a rientrare nel torbido mondo dello spionaggio. Incaricato di scoprire quale tra i suoi ex colleghi abbia deciso di tradire lui e il paese, Smiley restringe la ricerca a quattro possibili sospetti.
