The Caterpillar

Dom Cobb is an expert thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state. 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 steal, Cobb and his team of specialists have to do the reverse. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But a dangerous enemy anticipates their every move, and Cobb must learn to navigate the treacherous landscape of the dream world to achieve his goal.
