Every year, more than six hundred teenagers from over sixty Chicago area schools gather for the world's largest youth poetry slam, a competition known as "Louder Than a Bomb." Founded in 2001, "Louder Than a Bomb" is the only event of its kind in the country - a youth poetry slam built from the beginning around teams. Rather than emphasize individual poets and performances, the structure of "Louder Than a Bomb" demands that kids work collaboratively with their peers, presenting, critiquing, and rewriting their pieces. To succeed, teams have to create an environment of mutual trust and support. For many kids, being a part of such an environment - in an academic context - is life-changing.

For all you wordsmiths this is one to watch. Very inspiring to see young souls (who are probably my age now) and there perspective on the everyday lives we live.

I'm no writer, at least not a serious one, but this film is highly inspirational, and not only for poets.

This is a great documentary. The storytelling is great and there poetry is even better!
