- FROM THE ARCHIVE: This 2-part feature film first aired on TV in 2015.
Step into one of the most unlikely kingdoms on earth. This is the Dwarves Empire in Kunming, China, where little people stand tall. Or do they?
At this controversial theme park, little people dress in costumes and perform for visitors. Despite the fantasy world promised to them, life is not exactly a fairy tale.

How rude! Those tourists and the woman coordinator treated the little people like play things, carrying them like toddlers and making fun of them, not taking into account that the little people have feelings too. Sad. That really irked me.
Can't believe how they are being looked at cant eat in peace. Treat them like toys. Horrible. My heart for these people.
Their eyes are so lonely...their happy in front of other people but actually their hearts are bleeding of how other people treat them... they are also humans like us..with feelings and getting hurt aswell
I didn't watch the whole documentary the first time because it's so long (1.5 hours), now I'm watching it again from the start and it actually does show different perspectives. I know it focuses more on the "outcasts" (like Quan Quan who keeps being bullied by everyone) but some of the little people interviewed genuinely enjoy being in the Little Kingdom. I think it's not for everyone. I don't think it's right for people to say that they are being exploited. If they are there voluntarily then they are not being exploited, it's just a job. If you actually watch the entire 2-part documentary (it's 2 separate videos, this is only the first half) you will see that some of the employees left to find work in other places, like the 30-year-old lady who got her drivers licence and went to work in another theme park. Life is really what you make of it. I wish people would watch the whole documentary before making comments.
I love the feeling of them feeling loved and accepted but more should be done to help them develop they are very child like
It's genetic they don't lack hormones or anything so you can't change it unfortunately. You can only prevent it with genetic modification or just by not breeding if you have the gene
I also realised they don't show why Quan Quan decided to leave the Little Kingdom. At the beginning of the documentary he said he was happy there but then later he said he couldn't handle the complicated relationships there and never wanted to go back? It really doesn't explain why or what triggered his decision to leave.
The employees don't earn enough, I believe. There's also the problem the park itself doesn't get enough visitors.
So sad that they have to tell people to stop watching them. They are so brave. Life is difficult for everyone but praises to these people who have such a big challenge to overcome.
It would be really cool if they would build houses instead of dormitories for the people. Then they could really have an experience of living, marrying, and having a full life.
Sara A China has cruel laws about certain disabled groups, they discourage them finding love or trying to procreate. Honestly if it was up to them, they would euthanize all of them...
I’ve never seen people treat little people like freaks before, this is horrible. They’re just people, not entertainment
Listening and looking at the boss made my heart small.
I wish the small people with big hearts was boss.
They should really have a law where visitors must be polite and respectful and not so evasive towards these people they are after all in their homes at their workplace
Can we get an update?
It's been a while since I've seen something so exploitative. Good job on the doco!
It's exploitative but it's home for some of them. Outside, they face discrimination and struggle to survive. People either look at them as oddities or pity them. However, they don't need our pity. They just want to be treated like everyone else. Also, I don't think the park is making money, if anything at all. My guess is the owner is using the park as a tax write off.
@@porkcutlet3920 would be a perfect world if the owner ran it as a non profit. He can still make lotta money, just not greed money
Not sure why they're required to act like kids when they're clearly adults. I can't believe how some people find it humorous to carry them and ask stupid ass questions.
Does Jian have his own social media accounts? I felt terrible for them that people were staring at them while eating. People can be so ignorant. I pray Jian and his friend find peace and prosperity
May God bless them I pray Amen thank you
Are there truly no other option?
I mean.. Sure! - Everyone has a hard time.
I'm sure being Dwarf is double hard.
I find love in my heart for them. More for them than you.
Some people are rude, They too are human beings
They are not children so why pick them up to do what you want for your enjoyment,they are grownups ,how would you like someone to pick you up
The tourist and management are quite rough with them little guys..not fare be nice to them they have feelings too and they are human being so let's RESPECT THEM.
Glad to see the one little girl
Is doing well
Jian Quan is strong spirited.
There is no perfect happy place on earth you can only find heaven and paradise withinyour self..heart and mind thats where one happiness lie
Thank You We are ALL one 😊 👍 ☮ 🔆
Little people ~ big brain
Looking at their boss and their living condition, I think they got exploited.
Theyre so cute, i hope nothing bad ever happens to their beautiful kingdom 🥺🩷
Really fucked thing to say
Why , having so much money to even grow bigger, are the quarters so poorly and why hasn't more been invested and done to make the premises really dignified for them to live there? Does the government help?
i want them to come to mexico. i wish i can one day support any child in need. :(
They are adults
23:30 I don't know why they past away, I fed the cabbage and lettuce,better than I eat... 23:38 *mystery meat!*
Guo liu is so fine
33:15 - I have to be careful; my teeth will not handle this grinding that I do.
It comes to me as anger, because even children are not them.
It’s sad the conditions they are forced to live in,Seems more like shelter with motivation health violations, god bless them 😭
Free the Animals please, no the cages and chains.
omg that tourist woman with the purple hat i would have punched her to get her off of me people are being exploited just simply because they're little people and where they come from and it's not fair they're just like everyone else just small and I hate the fact that they say just because they're small repeatedly that they are slow&childlike, that place although the owner says that he has their best interest at heart is a liar he's a businessman and he's exploiting them he's making money off of them he doesn't really care or he wouldn't let people manhandle them like they were some kind of a puppet and not a human things need to change everywhere in the US that would never happen, those visitors are the most disrespectful people I've ever seen in my life laughing at them like they were freaks I'm so mad right now and grabbing them and picking them up patting them on their heads like their children what the hell or what gives them the right to do that??
What do you do when they ask a lot of questions about yourself or how you all do something
What's the name of the ending song
Hi @yuven dra, it's called 预言by the talented Jane Lai
@@channelnewsasia tq so much for the reply
They really look like little children 🤔
I was watching similar documentary on Vice and Westerners are so critical of the theme park and the person who built it. But are so racist in their own country, very hypocritical.
The way they just manhandle the ittle people around is gross. and mischaracterizing their disfomfort for lack of consent as being shy is a red flag.
That lady "mentoring" them is horrible
I hope they are not eating those dogs in those cages 😣
you are such a jerk
@@schang8964 It’s a valid concern…
Racism much?
