Many modern films feel the need to explain diversity. The Station Agent does not. Fin is a dwarf. Nobody asks him how tall his parents are. Nobody asks if he’s "magical." The only people who treat him differently are children (who are curious) and a cruel librarian who treats him like a petting zoo. The rest of the world simply... lets him exist. That remains radical. the station agent
