In this award-winning Sundance favorite, follow nine high school students as they prepare to compete in the world’s premier science fair. Dr. McCalla, a dedicated teacher and mentor, captures the essence of the documentary when she says, “These kids are going to change the world because they are the best
and brightest.” And these students allow that reality to fuel their success. By the end, you will find yourself pulling and cheering for these current and future world-changers, proving science fairs can be super exciting.
