Dom Cobb is a thief in the future who enters the minds of others for a high fee to steal ideas and give them to big corporations. He is haunted by memories of his wife, Mal, and their two daughters, and feels responsible for her death by suicide. To cope, he retreats into dream constructions that allow him to experience an idealized version of reality. He is then given one final, important job by a mysterious man named Saito: to plant an idea in someone's mind instead of taking one. Saito promises that if Cobb completes this "inception" he will be able to return home and regain some of what he lost.
