Speak

About This Movie

Speak is a compelling documentary that dives into the often paralyzing fear of public speaking. Galichia captures a variety of characters, each wrestling with their own anxieties and ambitions as they gear up for the World Championships of Public Speaking. There's this one guy who makes the wild choice to leave his whole life behind—wife, kids, the entire shebang—to chase the title. Another participant agonizes over his speech for weeks, only to rewrite it at the last moment. The pacing feels intimate, almost like you're right there in their living rooms, watching the struggle. The film digs into themes of vulnerability, aspiration, and the lengths people will go to conquer their fears. It's raw and personal, giving a real sense of the pressures that come with the stage.
