Big Dream is a documentary that follows the intimate stories of seven young women who are breaking barriers and overcoming personal challenges to follow their passion in science, math, computing & engineering. From small town Iowa to the bustling streets of the Middle East, Big Dream immerses viewers in a world designed by and for the inspiring next generation of girls. The film will be of interest to young women, families, and anyone interested in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education. All attendees are invited to take part in a panel discussion with recognized women in the STEM fields immediately following the film at the Normal Theater.
