Peter Dinklage in a leading role. That's all you need to know.

Heartwarming and quiet. The trailer would have you believe that this is about Peter Dinklage's character struggling with the bigotry of heightism. But it's far more subtle than that. It is a quiet movie about someone withdrawn from life and about the relationships that they make. The casting is phenomenal, with Peter shining as the lead, obviously. The pacing is great. It is a lovely movie, and I recommend it happily.
