Continuity mistake: When Ariadne wakes in the Snow Fortress and the floor goes from under her, we can see her gloves fall in to the crack but in a different camera shot of her we can see the gloves are now back near her head again. (02:12:20)
Inception (2010)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Christopher Nolan
Starring: Michael Caine, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Berenger, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Marion Cotillard, Elliot Page, Ken Watanabe
Cobb reveals to Ariadne that he knows inception is possible because he did it to his wife. He implanted the idea that "the world she is living in is not real," allowing them both to escape the deepest subconscious. The idea grew, causing her to kill herself in real life. Cobb talks to Saito, now an old man, in the deepest layer of subconscious and reminds him about their arrangement. Saito reaches for his gun. Cobb wakes up, passes through customs and meets his father. He goes home and sees his kids' faces. The last shot is of Cobb's totem, the spinning top... either spinning forever which means he's in a dream or about to topple which means he's in reality...

Trivia: The song that is played to wake everyone up is Edith Piaf's "Non, je ne regrette rien". Marion Cottillard (Mal) played Piaf in the biopic La Vie En Rose and won an Oscar for it.

Chosen answer: The details are never explained in the depth, but all the dreamers are connected via the briefcase, so it seems likely that the briefcase acts in some way as a networking hub for them to share the dreamspace.
