Downsizing

Paul Safranek, an occupational therapist, accepts a procedure that reduces people to roughly four inches tall. With overpopulation presented as a global crisis, the technology promises a way to use fewer resources while giving participants access to a more affordable lifestyle. Paul enters this miniature world expecting a practical solution for himself and his wife, Audrey, but the decision separates him from the life he knew and forces him to navigate the problems of a society built on an entirely different scale.
