From http://www.debateteamdocumentary.com/

Debate Team is a documentary exploring the weird subculture of competitive college debate. Competitors battle at 360 words per minute, hauling around mountains of evidence called “cards” and nearly every debate ends in global nuclear annihilation. 

The Documentary premiered at the San Francisco Documentary Film Festival in 2008 and then made it's television premiere on KQED, Public Television for the Bay Area in 2009. The film won critical praise from the San Francisco Chronicle, earning four out of five stars.
