Own the Room

This documentary shows the incredible, innovative minds of today's international youth hoping to build a better future for our world. As a Mexican-American, I was especially proud of the Latino representation among tomorrow's leaders-their hearts for humanity, their perseverance through extreme struggles, and their passionate pursuit to continue solving community, national, and global problems.

An inspiring documentary about young minds with fearless ambition to stand up for a cause they believe matters.

I especially enjoyed the life story behind each student entrepreneur and how it plays a crucial role in defining what they are trying to achieve. It shows no matter where you are from, you can end up in the same room with other like-minded beings to share a vision of a better world.

Well done.

It follows some students competing at the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards. There are different backgrounds represented, and it does a good job of looking at the challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship. More human interest than how-to, but a worthwhile watch if you or someone you love is thinking of taking the plunge.

Showing the struggles and perseverance of these kids to achieve their dreams at GSEA was so touching and real. Each one with their own set of challenges put my own world into perspective. The only aprt I didn't agree with the glossing over of why Henry was stopped and not allowed into Macau the first time. It highlighted that he was the only candidate stopped and not allowed in, and he was also the only Africa candidate of the group featured. That experience of being turned away because of your skin color could have been extrapolated on a little more. Its a real human experience.

This documentary does such a wonderful job of highlighting the positivity that comes from young people pursuing their passions. The stories are highly emotive, resulting in tears of happiness in many different scenes.

I'd recommend this to any lover of documentaries, anyone in need of positivity and anyone who is a natural entrepreneur. Above all, though, I recommend this film to young families. There are so many clear reminders that pursuing your passion and creativity are not bound by gender, race, geography, etc.

Go enjoy this film, but be warned...you may feel intense motivation to go start a business afterwards!
