Description
A social satire in which a guy realizes he would have a better life if he were to shrink himself. When scientists find a way to shrink humans to five inches tall, Paul Safrane and his wife Audrey decide to ditch their stressed out lives in order to get small and live large in a luxurious downsized community.
