What was the agenda? I saw the movie once many years ago. I mainly remember it being about kids building rockets.

i cannot tell you since i have neither seen the movie, nor was i monitoring Reddit comments in 1999.

and i don't recall any two-sided debate on any social, political or economic issues in grade school either.

perhaps not everything that can be said about a subject is discussed in grade school?
