Stars: Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau, Kristen Wiig
In a world where organic matter can be reduced to a tiny size, Paul Safranek (Damon) is an average guy who can’t afford to make his wife happy by buying the house she wants. Meeting old friends who have made the jump to downsize to a smaller, more prosperous life, the couple agree to make the irreversible transition – but things don’t go completely Paul’s way when he’s 4 inches tall! An ingenious comedy from the director of Sideways, After Schmidt and The Descendants.

Politician Janet is celebrating her new cabinet post by holding a little soirée with her academic husband Bill, some old friends and their partners, plus a smooth-talking banker. What could possibly go wrong?
Some long-hidden secrets and smoking guns, perhaps? Playing out in real time, director Potter delivers an observant, droll, just-absurd-enough farce, with Scott Thomas holding the film together as our dubious heroine. “A short, sharp, funny shock of a movie” (The Guardian).
