Werner Herzog, Even Dwarfs Started Small, 1970
Werner Herzog's movie "Even Dwarfs Started Small" takes place in an institution where its dwarf population has rebelled against those who imprison them. This is a film that demands your attention as there is much said but not spoken. It’s equal parts thought-provoking, strange, funny, frightening and violent.

"I was continuing to shrink, to become... what? The infinitesimal? What was I? Still a human being? Or was I the man of the future? If there were other bursts of radiation, other clouds drifting across seas and continents, would other beings follow me into this vast new world..."
