After crossing the border illegally, an entire family finds themselves mysteriously shrunk. Now barely two centimeters tall, the parents and children are abandoned by their smuggler before reaching the shelter that was supposed to take them in. Exhausted and starving, they are discovered in a park by Samuel and his friend Valentin, two high school students determined to protect them. But enthusiasm fades, and the Little Ones soon become trapped in the well-meaning intentions of their so-called "saviors" intentions that lead nowhere.
