Brazilian students chats about the documentary SCIENCE FAIR – Exclusive

From Ceará to Hollywood! Brazilian students Myllena Braz da Silva and Gabriel de Moura Martins are the protagonists in the documentary called SCIENCE FAIR. The documentary is fun and serious at the same time. A very nice movie to watch … Is it about science? Yes, but the formula that the filmmakers Darren Foster and Cristina Costantini used to make this film is joyful, interesting and you are discovering little by little the brilliant minds of these young scientists and researchers.

SCIENCE FAIR is an inspirational and fun documentary about students from different backgrounds who participated at Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). SCIENCE FAIR premiered in Los Angeles and New York on September 21 and expands on September 28 and showcases the next generations of smart kids!

About the film

Hailed by critics as “immensely likeable,” “brilliant and quirky” and an “ode to the teenage science geeks on who our future depends,” and winner of the audience award at Sundance and SXSW, National Geographic Documentary Films’ SCIENCE FAIR follows nine high school students from around the globe as they navigate rivalries, setbacks and, of course, hormones, on their journey to compete at The International Science and Engineering Fair. As 1,700 of the smartest, quirkiest teens from 78 different countries face off, only one will be named Best in Fair. The film, from Fusion and Muck Media and directed by the DuPont Award-winning and Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaking team Cristina Costantini and Darren Foster, offers a front seat to the victories, defeats and motivations of an incredible group of young men and women who are on a path to change their lives, and the world, through science.
