평생을 같은 집에 살면서 10년째 같은 식당에서 저녁을 때우며 평범한 삶을 살아가는 폴. 아내의 유일한 소원인 더 넓은 집을 갖는 것도 대출 조건이 되지 않아 포기할 수 밖에 없다. 한편, 인구과잉에 대한 해결책으로 인간축소프로젝트인 다운사이징 기술이 개발된다. 이 기술은 단순히 부피를 0.0364%로 축소시키고 무게도 2744분의 1로 줄이는 것이 아니라 1억원의 재산이 120억원의 가치가 되어 왕처럼 살 수 있는 기회의 시작이기도 하다. 화려한 삶을 그리며 폴과 아내는 다운사이징을 선택하지만, 시술을 마친 폴은 아내가 가족의 곁을 떠나기 싫어 다운사이징 된 자신을 두고 도망갔다는 청천벽력 같은 소식을 듣게 된다. 커다란 저택, 경제적인 여유, 꿈꾸던 럭셔리 라이프를 살아가지만 이혼 후 모든 것이 무의미해져 버린 폴. 그리고 모든 꿈이 실현되리라 믿은 다운사이징 세상에서도 또 다른 위기가 그를 기다리는데...
In the mid-80s, three women (each with an attorney) arrive at the office of New York entertainment manager, Morris Levy. One is an L.A. singer, formerly of the Platters; one is a petty thief from Philly; one teaches school in a small Georgia town. Each claims to be the widow of long-dead doo-wop singer-songwriter Frankie Lyman, and each wants years of royalties due to his estate, money Levy has never shared. During an ensuing civil trial, flashbacks tell the story of each one's life with Lyman, a boyish, high-pitched, dynamic performer, lost to heroin. Slowly, the three wives establish their own bond.

Genoa 2001: As the G8 Summit drew to a close and the press and politicians departed, 300 riot police stormed the Diaz School looking for members of the infamous Black Block. They found instead young activists, mostly students, teenagers and journalists from around Europe preparing to bunk down in the school gym.

Those seriously injured were rushed to the hospital in ambulances, though soon after they were forced to join those who had been arrested and driven to a detention centre and subjected to further abuse and degradation.
Crowds is a feature documentary that records popular events of Uruguay where thousands of people gather spontaneously, called by faith, passion, celebration and memory. What happens when we set aside our individuality to act collectively? This documentary observes the passions that draw thousands of people close in order to join in a choral character. It discovers the crowd while it transgresses and experiences catharsis, while it seeks miracles and hopes; in continuous movement it splits and rejoins... until they dissipate and individuals re-emerge in their own solitude.
