Join us as we travel back to 1814, when Washington D.C. was under British attack during the "Second War of Independence," and the very bricks and mortar of American democracy were reduced to smoking rubble. We examine the battle that inspired witness Francis Scott Key to immortalize its final moments, then reveal how his poem transformed into an anthem.

"National Spelling Bee" es un concurso americano de jóvenes que deletrean palabras. El documental relata las historias de ocho jovenes "talentos" que compiten por este título, reflejando las vidas de estos estudiantes mientras practican o mientras compiten en el concurso, descubriendo no sólo la personalidad de cada uno de ellos, los obsesivos hábitos de estudio que sus padres les imponen, sus sacrificios por entregarse al cien por cien a la preparación del concurso o sus decepciones amorosas, sino también la historia de su propio país.
