About the film: “Jaime Escalante is an engineer turned mathematics teacher. Convinced that his students have potential, he adopts unconventional teaching methods to help gang members and no-hopers pass the rigorous Advanced Placement exam in calculus.” This movie is rated PG, so it is not considered suitable for young audiences.
