***WINNER – Best Animated Feature Film – 2015 Academy Awards

 

Free for kids 12 & under! 

 

Come before the screening to meet Team Z.I.P Ties, a FIRST Tech Challenge team of middle and high school students with a passion for robotics! FIRST® Tech Challenge students work together with their mentors to design and build dynamic robots to compete in an exciting game released every September. On and off the field, students develop STEM skills, engage in community outreach, practice engineering innovation, and build confidence to help them succeed.

 

Robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada learns to harness his genius, thanks to his brilliant brother Tadashi and their like-minded friends: adrenaline junkie Go Go Tamago (Jamie Chung), neatnik Wasabi (Damon Wayans Jr.), chemistry whiz Honey Lemon (Genesis Rodriguez), and fanboy Fred (T.J. Miller). When a devastating turn of events propels them into the midst of a dangerous plot unfolding in the streets of San Fransokyo, Hiro turns to his closest companion—a robot named Baymax—and transforms the group into a band of high-tech heroes determined to solve the mystery. Big Hero 6 was the highest grossing animated film of 2014, and won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
