Inception (2010) Directed by Christopher Nolan. 2hr 28min.

Join us for the audacious and expansive film Inception, whose multi-layered narrative and visual stylings, structure and scale made it a modern classic. 

A thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster.

Part of PAM CUT @ The Whitsell’s inaugural film series, Maximalist Dreamscapes. These bold, visionary films don’t just show us what is—they construct alternate possibilities, expand our perception of the world, and open portals to entirely new dimensions.

We do not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films, and films exhibited don’t necessarily reflect the views of PAM CUT or the Portland Art Museum. In addition to the synopses, trailers, and other links on our website, further information about content and age-appropriateness for specific films can be found on sites like Common Sense Media, IMDb, and DoesTheDogDie.com.
