Dom Cobb er den absolutt beste tyven innen den farlige kunsten å stjele verdifulle hemmeligheter fra dypet av underbevisstheten, i drømmetilstand, når hjernen er på sitt mest sårbare. Cobbs evner har gjort ham ettertraktet i denne makeløse verdenen av industrispionasje, men den har også gjort ham til en internasjonal rømling og kostet ham alt han har kjært. Nå får Cobb sjansen til å utføre en siste jobb som kan gi ham livet tilbake, men bare hvis han makter det nesten umulige: å foreta en "inception". I stedet for å stjele en idé, skal Cobb og hans lag av eksperter gjøre det motsatte - de skal plante en. Lykkes de, kan de ha begått det perfekte lovbruddet. Men verken ekspertise eller grundig planlegging kan forberede teamet på møtet med personen som synes å kjenne alle sinnrike detaljer i den mesterlige planen. En person som bare Cobb kunne forutsett.
