What is it really like to build and live in your own tiny house?

SHORT SYNOPSIS
Four people seek a more sustainable and financially secure future by building and living in their own tiny houses.

FULL SYNOPSIS
Small is Beautiful – a tiny house documentary, is a revealing look into the tiny house movement, a grass roots response to the housing affordability crisis that traps people from across the developed world.

In Portland, Oregon, we meet four people, each of whom are at various stages of building and living in their own tiny homes. Ben is a 20 something single guy with an inheritance to spend and a design he drew, but an ambitious timeline and no building experience. Nikki and Mitchell are a young couple who, along with their two dogs, dream of bucking the stereotypical life style of buying a big house and spending the rest of their lives trying to pay it off. Karen, 50, has loved living in her tiny house for two years yet still struggles with the lack of permanency that comes with living in a house on wheels.
Ultimately this story proves that it’s not what’s inside the walls of a tiny house that counts, but rather it is the strong community of like minded people who support each other as they dare to be different.

The feature length documentary runs for 68 minutes and is directed by Jeremy Beasley.
