What happens

Little Man (stylized as little man) is a 2005 American documentary film by Nicole Conn. The film was intended to document surrogate pregnancy, but the baby was delivered 100 days early. Instead, the film documents experiences of a family dealing with an extremely premature birth involving 158 days in a NICU (neonatal intensive care unit). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
