Synopsis:
Through personal interviews, conversation with teenage boys, meeting with experts and considerable humor and self exposure, Edan Alterman sets out to examine how height affects men who are shorter than others. Are shorter men funnier? Does short stature created tall character? Why do girls only want to date tall guys? And who do the short guys go out with? The film follows two short- statured boys who still dream of getting tall, and short- statured adults who have learned to live with a world that at times teases them but generally just blocks their view. Short is a personal, moving and entertaining documentary that will add a couple of inches to the ego of short people.
