Produced for Channel 5 by Nine Lives Media in 2009, This moving and inspiring film meets three primordial dwarves living in the UK: Liam, Finn and Alex and their families. The documentary reveals how important it is for young children with this very rare condition to meet and form friendships with others who look similar to them and face the same hurdles in life. It is also great for their families to be able to offer their mutual support and we follow Liam’s parents as they launch Britain’s first international gathering for parents and children with the condition in Liverpool.

Primordial dwarfism is an extremely rare form of dwarfism, where the bodies stay proportionate but small. Only one in five million children suffer from the condition. Growth decelerates with age and most will only grow to 40 inches (102 cm) by the age of 12 and then not live beyond their twenties. It is believed that fewer than 200 people have the condition worldwide.

The little girl who helps Finn in nursery, is such an amazing young lady. She has so much patience and seems to be there for her lots, that really touched my heart. Finn is so beautiful, they all are gorgeous. I pray they live a long healthy life x

Finn was alive and well in 2017, when she won a price in a sports competition. Liam was alive and well in 2019. He has long hair and looks handsome. Alex had his 15th birthday in 2020. I haven´t found newer info.

Stinks that the end of the story has no sound. These boys and girls are beautiful and are blessed to have Mums and Dads who love them. And plenty of good friends at school.

I just want to say that the fact that the other kids are helping and including her instead of ignoring and making fun of her warms my heart. Finn has some really good friends!

My 3 year old is the same height as little Alex.. she has just recently started wearing 18 month infant clothes and fits a size 4 baby shoe. She weighs all of 23 lbs🫤. She’s my bitty baby love

I love the fun spirit of these children! They deserve the best quality of life possible. The power ranger costume is awesome!! Finns parents did a great job making sure she has an age appropriate uniform like the other kids. Alex and all of the kids have wonderful loving parents!
