This Disney animated film follows Lewis, a lonely young inventor. His latest and most ambitious project is the Memory Scanner, a device to help him recall his mother and to help him reunite his family.

But before he puts his plan into action, his invention is stolen by a strange man donning a black bowler hat. Shortly after, a stranger named Wilbur Robinson whisks Lewis away in a time machine. The man in the bowler hat is from the future, and there Lewis - with the help of the Robinson family - tries to track down his invention.
