Description

ZERO GRAVITY

Directed by: Thomas Verrette | 74 min | 2021 | United States

Zero Gravity introduces us to Campbell Middle School's innovative Zero Robotics program as we follow the progress of three students in professor Tanner Marcoida's class. Makayla Engelder, Advik Gonugunta, and Carol Gonzalez work to create code that will program satellites and contribute to a NASA-sponsored competition where astronauts will put the programs to the test. 

Director Thomas Verrette connects us not only with this amazing story, but also with the families of the students and reflections on the Bay Area's diversity challenges. It's a winner!
