Pandas

Pandas (2018, Warner Bros.) is an IMAX movie filmed in China. It is a story about a young panda named Qian Qian. She was born in captivity and chosen to learn the skills needed to live in the wild. The film follows her growth from infancy to adulthood, documenting her caretakers' interactions in readying her for a return to the wild. I found this movie to be highly educational, because I learned that pandas are excellent tree climbers.

Dream Big

Dream Big (2017, MacGillivray Freeman Films) is a movie about how we think about engineering, Dream Big observes great feats of human engineering great and small, old and new. From the Great Wall of China to sustainable cities. I found this film to be very exciting, because of the visuals and the soundtrack, composed by John Jennings Boyd. This film was very educational, giving me a complete view of the engineering process, from planning stages to completing projects.
