Inception (2012, M)

The Capitol is excited to be screening Christopher Nolan’s thrilling 2010 classic Inception as a part of The Capitol Film Program on the 28th of March at 2:00pm. Come and enjoy this Nolan classic in our 100 year old cinema.

Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a thief with the rare ability to enter people's dreams and steal their secrets from their subconscious. His skill has made him a hot commodity in the world of corporate espionage but has also cost him everything he loves. Cobb gets a chance at redemption when he is offered a seemingly impossible task: Plant an idea in someone's mind. If he succeeds, it will be the perfect crime, but a dangerous enemy anticipates Cobb's every move.
