Didn't expect to enjoy this documentary as much as I did. Stumbled onto it at Disney and put it on as background noise while playing a game, but it quickly pulled me in. Follows a couple teams from different countries as they prepare to compete in the FIRST robotics competition, which I've never heard of. Enjoyable and optimistic.

Reviews about "winning I've everything"
The few reviews on here talking about winning is everything misses the point entirely and has never participated in FiRST or else they'd get it.
The organization is nurturing a generation to compete using teamwork, but not at all costs or scorching the earth on the way to victory.
There are phrases termed by FIRST: Gracious Professionalism - be respectful when winning or not, leave something better than you found it.
Coopertition - help out other teams, maybe with a power tool or resources, so you can beat them at their best.
They are trying to instill in all of us by building robots together we can be better humans in life And in the workforce.
The students I've worked with have grown to be exceptional teammates and leaders, the future looks bright.
Let's all sing kumbaya, right?
Everything is about winning.
Everybody wants the best job, the most good looking partner, the perfect life....
This thing about not winning is good only in Disney's movies.
Life is hard. Get used to it.
