18. Science Fair

Spider Man Paddington
National Geographic Documentary Films

Rating: 98%

Adored by the South By Southwest festival crowd and hailed for its likeability, charm and quirkiness, Science Fair is essentially an ode to teenage science geeks. It follows nine high school students from around the world as they prepare to compete at The International Science and Engineering Fair.

What's not to love about a documentary taking in the agony of youth in a setting where 1,700 of the smartest, quirkiest teens from 78 different countries in the world face-off?

Sample Review:

"Even in a year of extraordinary documentaries like "RBG," "Won't You Be My Neighbor" and "Three Identical Strangers," "Science Fair" is something special." - LA Times
