sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his
arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can't do it alone, so he

Inception: Dom Cobb
(Leonardo DiCaprio) is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art
of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious
during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare
ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate
espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him
everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption.
One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the
impossible—inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of
specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but
to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But no amount of
careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that
seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen
coming. This summer, your mind is the scene of the crime.
