007 Four Kids on a Team

As an eighth grader, Peter Koudelka and three of his best friends earn a school-sponsored trip to Washington DC to compete in a trivia competition (formally known as Academic Challenge). Despite being more interested in sightseeing and having a good time with each other, they start to succeed in the tournament. At the same time, tension begins bubbling up between the friends as they anticipate their trivia-playing days together soon coming to an end.

Story by Peter Koudelka. Music & production by Nate Sahr.
