[SPOILERS FOR THE MOVIE INCEPTION]

History:
Little is said about Arthur’s background; we get to know him through the movie, but his personal life or past is never mentioned. The technology in Arthur’s world allows him and his team to infiltrate people’s dreams and steal information from their subconscious. There’s also the possibility of inserting an idea into someone’s mind, but it takes a lot of risk and is way more complicated. It’s called an ‘inception’.

When the movie starts, Arthur and his coworker Dom Cobb are trying to convince a man named Saito that they can help him to protect his subconscious. They offer him the opportunity to teach them how to resist mind incursions from possible interceptors. The truth is that they’re trying to steal classified information from Saito’s mind. His plan is revealed when Mal, a woman that knows the rules of the dream world and later is revealed to be Cobb’s dead wife, shows up and informs Saito about it. She shoots Arthur in the leg to prove that they can feel pain even while they’re dreaming, and also to convince Cobb to give up the mission. Dom’s reply is to shoot Arthur in the head, killing him, and thus waking him. The dream starts to collapse around Cobb and the others because Arthur was the dreamer that kept the world together.

They fail the mission but Saito makes them another offer: in exchange for implanting an idea into someone, Saito will solve Cobb’s problems with the law and he will be able to see his children again. Arthur agrees to help Cobb reluctantly, and they recruit new member for the team: Ariadne (the architect who construct the world inside the dream), Yusuf (the chemist), and Eames, (the forger). Their target is Robert Michael Fischer, the heir to a multi-billion dollar empire and Saito’s competition.

When Fischer’s father dies in Sydney, the team shares a flight with him back to America and start the plan. They need to invade Fischer’s mind and navigate through the dream levers Ariadne created:

- In the first one, Yusuf’s dream, they’re attacked by Robert’s subconscious (the projections), revealing that his mind was trained to prevent this sort of invasions.
-The second level, Arthur’s dream, happens in a hotel building. There they convince Fischer to access to the next level with them while Arthur stays in the second one, protecting the team.

-The third level, Eames’s dream, is located in a fortress. Mal shows up and kills Fischer, sending him to the fourth level, the Limbo. While they are in the third level, the team misses a second ‘kick’ (the force that awakens them from each dream), and Arthur needs to figure out how to cause a kick in the hotel that now has zero gravity.

Cobb and Ariadne travel to the fourth level, rescuing Fischer and finishing the mission. Sadly, Saito dies in the third level and Cobb stays in Limbo to help him to get back to reality. By the time they finally arrive to America, the mission is over, Saito and Cobb are back, the idea was implanted in Fischer and he figured out his feelings about his father.
