In the movie Orphan. Esther (Leena Klammer) has a rare hormone disorder that is called Hypopituitarism. It causes proportional dwarfism.

Biography:Esther is a woman who could be defined as a violent and deluded psychopath. She is highly intelligent, highly manipulative, superficially charming when needed, and lacks remorse. She can easily induce fear, empathy, and even admiration when it suits her ambitions. She has extreme talent in music and art, and is apparently able to learn languages very quickly. The choice of the name Esther, which alludes to the Biblical figure who was once an orphan and became Queen of Persia, multiple mentions of heaven, and carrying her male victim's pictures around inside an old Bible suggests that she is somewhat influenced by Judeo-Christian concepts though clearly not on moral level. Leena suffers from a pituitary disorder, Hypopituitarism. that causes her to be a proportional dwarf. Because she is physically not quite a grown woman and not quite a child, it is hard for her to have an adult relationship with a normal man, which is one of the things she yearns for. She was sexually abused by her father from infancy. When her father took on a new sexual partner, he informed Leena that it was because she would never be a real woman. She was pushed into insanity and killed both her father and his girlfriend. She was subsequently caught and eventually placed in a mental institution. Eventually she managed to escape, then continued to allow herself to be abused by becoming a prostitute for wealthy pedophiles for years. When the police caught her, she pretended to be a child to avoid jail time and was sent to the orphanage, where she found her first family of victims and later moved on to the Colemans. Leena was one of Saarne's most violent patients, forcing the staff to keep her in a straitjacket that she was constantly fighting to get out of. Continued struggling against her restraints caused scarring on her wrists and neck. So, to cover these, she wears ribbons. She escaped the hospital and tricked an American family into adopting her. Eventually, she tried to seduce the father, and when that failed, she killed him and his family and set fire to the house. After this family, she was taken in by an American orphanage where she eventually met the Colemans. Leena is continuing her efforts to find romantic/physical love in the only form she understands, a father figure.

Esther's real life given name is Isabelle Fuhrman. she was born on February 25, 1997 in Washington, DC.
