What to Watch in August: Inventing Tomorrow
Sahithi Pingali in Inventure Academy lab - Bangalore, India
Indonesia, India, Mexico, Hawaii, and many other countries, communities, and islands are rife with the ravages of environmental degradation. But hope comes with a surprising—and touching—group of young people. Meet six brilliant high school students as they prepare for the world's largest high school science competition: the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF).
Director Laura Nix trains her eye on her articulate and loveable subjects and goes beyond the notion of the nerdy whiz kid to create a complete portrait of engaged and inspired (and inspiring) youth. An artful and moving film, Inventing Tomorrow looks optimistically at the future through the passion and forward thinking of these exceptional teens.

Hello Everybody!
On behalf of the Middle Coast Film Festival team I wanted to let you all know about a great volunteering opportunity this September. Middle Coast is a film festival that has recently relocated to Chicago and is looking for volunteers. If you are interested please follow the link to our volunteer page to become familiar with us and fill out our volunteer form. (Fun fact: those who volunteer at least 3 hours with us will get a badge to screen films when they're not working and may have the chance to network with other filmmakers!)
https://www.middlecoastfest.com/volunteer
If you have any questions feel free to contact me or email [email protected].
And even if you don’t live in Chicago or cannot make it, please signal boost!
Thank-you for your time. I hope to hear from many of you soon!
Leon Gast, director of the Oscar-winning documentary When We Were Kings (1996), said of his experience producing the film: "In my career, I spent five days with the Grateful Dead, I travelled with the Hells Angels, and I went to Folsom Prison [for Johnny Cash’s concerts in 1968]. But ‘The Rumble in the Jungle’ topped them all. I built a relationship and a rapport with Muhammad Ali and I could never top that experience."
