Cheistopher Nolan's sci-fi thriller

Just as he’s met the love of his life and begins transitioning into a normal life, a master thief is lured back by an old acquaintance with a high risk/high reward assignment - using experimental and volatile time travel technology, the thief and his team (made up entirely of people who have never met one another) will sabotage a shadowy corporation’s sudden rise to power (by sudden, we mean some 3 years prior) by stealing delicate information concerning, you guessed it: time travel. Hot on their trail, however, are two hostile factions: the corporation’s own temporal security and a mysterious task force that doesn’t seem entirely committed to aiding or hindering the thief and his team (you can probably guess the twist there). And what will happen when the thief begins asking questions of his new employers?
