Not only is it a solid premise, but there is an ultrashort story by Franz Kafka that lends itself perfectly to a cinematic promo video:
TINY MOUSE-SIZED HUMAN:
"Alas! The whole world is growing smaller every day.
[Close on the tiny person, panning out ever-so-slowly to reveal, bit by bit, the cavernous enormity of the room.]
At the beginning it was so big that I was afraid, I kept running and running, and I was glad when I saw walls far away to the right and left, but these long walls have narrowed so quickly that I am in the last chamber already, and there in the corner stands the trap that I must run into."
[Corner trap now visible, the camera holds steady and dwells for a moment on this sad, bleak fate. Suddenly, there is another voice from behind -- this is not a monologue after all.]
CAT, SLINKING INTO VIEW:
"You only need to change your direction." [CAT pounces, and promptly gobbles him up.]
