A stuttering teen competes on a debate squad to win over his ambitious, beautiful teammate. High-school teen Hal Hefner has suffered relentless ridicule thanks to a persistent speech impediment. But when the sharp and pretty Ginny Ryerson persuades Hal to be her new debate partner after a team blunder, the outcast is coached to compete and may possibly stammer into love.

Rocket Science Film Synopsis

Hal is a 15-year-old high-school student with a minor yet socially alienating (and painful) disability: he stutters uncontrollably. Determined to work through the problem, Hal opts for an extreme route – he joins the school debating team, which sends him on a headfirst plunge into breakneck speech competitions and offers a much-needed boost toward correcting the problem.

Español

Nederlands
Een tiener met een ontzettend stotterprobleem sluit zich aan bij een debatgroep van zijn high school. Hij hoopt met deze wanhopige poging indruk te maken op het meisje van zijn dromen, om haar zo voor zich te winnen.

עִבְרִית
"לחפש אחר תשובות כדי לענות לשאלות הגדולות של החיים" זהו סיפור על נער שמצטרף ל"קבוצת הדיונים" בתיכון.

Română
O comedie despre spaimele și confuziile tipic adolescenței. Hal Hefner e un puști din New Jersey, un tip oarecare și cam bâlbâit. Toată viața sa, Hal a încercat în zadar să se piardă în peisaj – să treacă nevăzut și neauzit – până ce, într-o zi, descoperă că e îndrăgostit de Ginny Ryerson, șefa echipei de oratorie a școlii... Ca să o cucerească, băiatul se aruncă cu capul înainte în lumea extrem de competitivă a vorbitului în public.

Türkçe
Blitz, belgesel türündeki ilk filmi Spellbound’da heceleme yarışmasına katılan 8 çocuğun stres dolu dünyasını gözler önüne sermişti. Rocket Science’da ise hoşlandığı kız yüzünden okulun münazara takımına giren, ancak normalde kekeleme sorunu yaşadığı için zor durumda kalan 15 yaşındaki Hal Hefner’in büyüme hikayesini anlatıyor. Kanadalı Reece Thompson’ın başarıyla canlandırdığı Hefner’ın hayran olduğu, münazara takımının yıldızı Ginny Ryerson rolünde ise Anna Kendrick’i izliyoruz

普通话
　　家住新泽西某郊区小镇的高中男孩哈尔·海弗纳（里斯·汤普森 Reece Thompson 饰）生活一塌糊涂，他的父母婚姻破裂，哥哥厄尔（文森特·皮雅扎 Vincent Piazza 饰）极度自私无能，哈尔又存在语言障碍的毛病。家——学校——家，两点一线是哈尔主要的生活方式。秋日的某天，命运之轮开始转动。在校车上，学校辩论会明星级的人物珍妮·莱尔森（安娜·肯德里克 Anna Kendrick 饰）主动找到哈尔，邀请他成为州立高中辩论大赛的搭档，此举几乎震惊了整个学校。珍妮似乎隐隐感到哈尔尚未被人发觉的辩论才能，而这一机遇也使哈尔黯淡的人生发生转变…… 　　本片荣获2007年圣丹斯电影节剧情片导演奖。

Português
O inusitado em Rocket Science começa desde seu protagonista: uma pessoa que gagueja instintivamente prefere os bastidores, os papéis secundários, mas Hal Hefner (vivido pelo ator revelação Reece Thompson) faz exatamente o movimento oposto. Estudante secundário em New Jersey, Hal decide tomar a mais improvável das atitudes para uma pessoa que gagueja: impelido por uma avassaladora paixão juvenil, resolve entrar no grupo de debates da escola e ir em busca de sua voz perdida.

Český
Hal je patnáctiletý středoškolák s drobným, ale společensky odcizujícím (a bolestivým) postižením: nekontrolovatelně koktá. Hal je rozhodnutý se s tímto problémem vypořádat a zvolí extrémní cestu - přihlásí se do školního debatního týmu, který ho vrhne do krkolomných řečnických soutěží a nabídne mu tolik potřebný impuls k nápravě problému.

Український
Фільм про тарганів в голові кожного з нас: про те, що вони є в голові у кожного, - сумніватися не доводиться, тому що саме ці комахи роблять кожного з нас по-справжньому особливим і не схожим на інших.

Français
Hal est un lycéen de 15 ans atteint d'un handicap mineur mais socialement aliénant (et douloureux) : il bégaie de façon incontrôlable. Déterminé à résoudre le problème, Hal opte pour une voie extrême - il rejoint l'équipe de débat de l'école, ce qui l'envoie plonger tête première dans des concours de discours effrénés et offre un coup de pouce bien nécessaire pour corriger le problème.

Dansk
Hal er en almindelig genert 15-årig dreng som har det lidt svært i skolen og i hjemmet - og han stammer - han har svært ved at sige sit navn. Så dukker Ginny op som en udefrakommende engel. Hun er en stjerne i skolens debathold, og ser noget i Hal som ingen anden ser, og tilbyder ham en plads på holdet.
