This new featurette of Spare Parts will give you a better understanding of what to expect from the film:

SPARE PARTS – What’s the story?Plot:
“A true life story about four Hispanic high school students who form a robotics club under the leadership of their school’s newest teacher, Fredi (GEORGE LOPEZ). With no experience, 800 bucks, used car parts and a dream, this rag tag team goes up against the country’s reigning robotics champion, MIT. On their journey, they learn not only how to build a robot- they learn to build a bond that will last a lifetime.”

And here’s a video about the real-life heroes whose story inspired the film :
