Since the 1970s, the artist Charles Simonds (b. 1945) has created enigmatic dwellings for an imaginary civilization of “Little People.” Spread across more than thirty cities around the world, from Amsterdam to Minneapolis, these miniature built environments can be found tucked away on street corners and window ledges. In Burckhardt's film, astonished neighborhood kids look on as Simonds crafts his mini-locales.
