In this relationship dramedy about a couple struggling with the imbalance of power in their marriage, a husband (a scientist) makes his wife (a novelist with writer's block) feel figuratively small and unheard. Then, he accidentally shrinks her to six inches tall so now she's literally small and unheard as the metaphor becomes real. This is an exploration of the fragility of love and ambition, cloaked in the absurdity of its premise. But at its core, it's a love story and a remarriage story. As they struggle to navigate the sobering truth of her new, miniature reality, they are forced to confront whether their marriage -- and their love -- can survive. Perhaps, miniaturization is the epic reset these two needed to tackle the biggest crisis of their lives and fall in love all over again.
