This documentary tells the story of India’s only all-dwarf theater group. Many of them once worked as clowns in circuses, but through theater, they have found respect, dignity, and love. They are now building their own village, with homes made to fit their needs. It’s where they live, practice, and perform. They also travel across India to share their stories on stage. The film shows their struggles, hopes, and dreams — a powerful journey of courage and change.
