It tells the story of a middle-aged couple who voluntarily joined a slimming plan to make themselves smaller in order to save money. As a result, only the husband became smaller and the wife did not, so the conflicts between the two became more and more. Therefore, if you think that the movie just wants to reflect the midlife crisis of the couple by comparing different worlds and is therefore a simple and interesting comedy love movie, then you are wrong. Why? And listen to me slowly; this is a very complicated story. In the face of increasingly serious resource shortages and population growth, scientists have developed a 2744:1 human body reduction technique, which can transform a 1.8-meter tall man into 12.9 centimeters in just a few hours. In this way, ten years have passed, the technology has become very mature, and the living facilities in the micro body community are also becoming more and more perfect, even far better than in the real world, and more and more people have entered the micro body world.
