Even Dwarfs Started Small (1970)
Director: Werner Herzog
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A film about man's relation to the world of objects he surrounds himself with. Dwarfs are used to emphasise the extent to which objects dominate our personal relations: their alienation from the institution and its products is ours too. The anarchist uprising is a beautiful negation of bourgeois values, sometimes savage, but usually compassionate and amusing. The dwarfs are great, and the tribal music superb.Author:
