We just saw this documentary movie tonight at Cinequest in San Jose, CA. It was finished just three days ago. The subject is Dean Kamen, a genius inventor. The man behind Segway. The man behind the FIRST Robotics Competition that's making science, technology, math, and engineering into a sport so that kids are sucked in body and soul. The man who has spent nearly two decades developing a machine to purify water in the toughest locales on the planet. That guy.
This in-depth look at Kamen the man is inspiring. This is a man who likes to solve problems, so much that he's dedicating every waking moment to solving these problems. He's part Tom Swift. A small part Howard Roarke. A big part humanitarian. No matter what he's doing, Kaman's trying to help people live better lives either through medical equipment, truly assistive wheelchairs, or clean water.
These days, Kamen's a man on a mission. Several missions in fact. This documentary walks you through them. The filmmaker, Paul Lazarus, would like every middle school and high school student to see this film. Why? Because it's inspiring. Kamen's a spark plug of positivity in a world where negativity is so readily on tap.
Which would you rather have: a bunch of young people out solving the world's problems or a bunch of young people Tweeting their opinions about these problems? I know which I prefer.
Go see this movie. Tell Netflix you want it. Tell Amazon you want to get it through Amazon Prime. But do something positive. See it.
