‘Speak.’ Review: A Straightforward and Inspiring Doc About Talented Teens | Sundance 2025
From Oprah Winfrey to Jordan Peele, there has been a long history of great artists, entertainers, policymakers, and more who have participated in Speech & Debate. Odds are, you’re more familiar with the second part of that (at least I was, in no small part due to the criminally underrated teen rom-com Candy Jar), but Speak. is here to give you a crash course on the former, particularly a component called Original Oratory, wherein high school students write 10-minute speeches on the topic of their choice and perform them in front of judges.
