Plot summary

Five teenage girls are members of a high school debate team in Massachusetts that ranks among the strongest in the country. The team competes in a sphere where boys set the terms and where girls can be interrupted, underrepresented, or held to different standards. Over several years, the five pursue success in debate on their own terms, working toward recognition as the best in the United States. Each confronts the obstacles that come with the activity's competitive culture and its gender dynamics. The team is diverse. The documentary follows them as they speak, argue, and push for their place in a demanding arena.
