STEM. Strength. Spirit. Welcome to Enugu, Nigeria, where courage meets creativity.
Join young inventor Zikora in this inspiring, STEM-powered adventure as she dares to dream bigger than anyone thought possible. When a national robotics competition challenges students to build machines that reflect African heritage, Zikora sets her sights on a bold idea: a majestic, roaring robot lion that represents the heart and pride of her hometown.
Join young inventor Zikora in this inspiring, STEM-powered adventure as she dares to dream bigger than anyone thought possible. When a national robotics competition challenges students to build machines that reflect African heritage, Zikora sets her sights on a bold idea: a majestic, roaring robot lion that represents the heart and pride of her hometown.
Faced with skepticism, especially as a girl in tech, Zikora must rally a diverse team, hunt for spare parts in the bustling markets of Enugu, master coding languages like Python and Arduino C, and overcome setbacks that threaten to short-circuit her vision. But with resilience, teamwork, and a little help from her engineer mom and community mentors, Zikora proves that no dream is too wild to bring to life.
