The protagonist, Joe, portrayed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is one such looper. He works for a crime syndicate in the year 2044 and kills targets sent back from the year 2074.

As the story unfolds, older Joe reveals that he has come back in time to prevent a future disaster orchestrated by a mysterious figure known as the Rainmaker. Young Joe finds himself entangled in a complex web of events as he grapples with the consequences of his actions and attempts to alter the future. "Looper" explores themes of destiny, identity, and the consequences of one's choices. It combines elements of science fiction, action, and drama to create a gripping and thought-provoking narrative.
