A nightmarish fable, equal parts fairy tale and post-apocalyptic science fiction… Young Tom Thumb, only six inches tall, is the freakish result of an artificial insemination mishap. When kidnapped and trapped in a secret scientific compound with numerous other tiny medical oddities, Tom must engineer a dangerous escape to return to his heartbroken family… Fascinating stopmotion animation technique combined with live action.
