I came into this thinking that this movie (yes, I knew it was a movie coming in) was going to be just as bad as that Mermaids crap that Animal Planet released several years back. However, I was genuinely surprised at the quality of this film. It does have scientific background, as there was a species of little humans living in Indonesia up until about 10,000 years ago, however not enough to really classify it as a documentary.
The interviews were obviously fake, as it is with all docu-fictions, however the writers paid a good amount of attention to it's story. I actually felt for the characters, unlike with other animal planet docu-fictions. They made me like the characters, not just look at them indifferently like in Mermaids: The Body Found. Overall, I would highly recommend this film to anyone.
