The Shrinking Man

A new adaptation of Richard Matheson’s novel, follows the journey of Paul, an ordinary man who divides his life between his shipbuilding business, his wife Elise, and their daughter Mia. During a trip out at sea, Paul encounters a strange and unexplained meteorological phenomenon. From that moment on, Paul begins to shrink relentlessly, with no scientific explanation and no hope of a cure. 

When, by accident, he finds himself trapped in his own basement – and now only a few centimeters tall, he must fight to survive in what has become a dangerous and unfamiliar version of his everyday environment. 

Throughout this experience, Paul is forced to confront himself, his humanity, and the fundamental questions of existence.
