A romantic dramedy that uses magical realism—a shrinking accident—as a literal externalization of power imbalance within a marriage, balancing whimsy with genuine relationship reckoning.

Lindy and Les, a married writer and scientist, are forced to re-evaluate the power balances in their relationship after a freak accident shrinks Lindy down to 6 inches tall.
