Portrait of children, men and women filmed in their daily life while assuming a serious handicap : dwarfism. This film recounts with modesty the daily struggle to live with one's small size beyond the mockery and the regard of others.
Whether choosing to rely on science to "lengthen" their burden or to simply make their appearance and therefore stand out in a world cruel unsuited to this handicap, they all embrace a real challenge : to live one's life and grow in one's heart.
