| Summary |
A millionaire wanted to create a utopia for little people in China. A land where they could live and work among themselves, away from the discrimination of mainstream society. And so the "Dwarves Empire" was born. This is an unlikely theme park where dozens of little people live and perform for anyone who pays a US$16 entrance fee. This observational documentary chronicles the journeys of a few employees at a pivotal point in their lives. Connected by a will to pursue their dreams, these little people take their chances in an uncertain world. "Little People Big Dreams" explores the cost of prejudice and the shades of modern-day morality |
