Afternoon light spills into the kitchen as Tom pours a glass of water. Maddie takes a drink, unaware of the secret brew mixed in. Suddenly, the world violently expands; their bodies shrink to half a centimetre. The wooden floor now looks like an abyss of endless cracks. The air vibrates with distant footsteps. Tom and Maddie, now tiny human specks, stare around in absolute terror. Everything is gigantic: crumbs are boulders, dust is fog. The sound of a single water drop falls like a thunderclap. Their vulnerability is total in the face of a familiar room turned into a hostile, colossal landscape.
