Joey Daoud, the producer of Bots High, says:

Bots High is a funny and inspiring documentary that follows three teams of high school robotics geeks who build and battle their way to a national robotics competition in Miami. Funny, smart, and inspiring, these kids navigate high school, adolescence, and first love while reducing enemy bots to shards of scrap metal.

On October 6th anyone can host or join a screening to watch Bots High for free. This is a great way for anyone to check out the film, for schools to get kids inspired in science and engineering, or for robotics and engineering groups to show off their latest creations. Afterwards you can watch a livestreaming Q&A with director Joey Daoud and the robotics teams.

Please fix the URL link at end of the article… it ref’s a make page not directly http://www.botshigh.com/

It should also be noted this is NOT the FIRST Robotics, Lego Bot or VEX competition. This is serious Battle Bot Fu.
