Description

Growing up, Dean Kamen heard the story of David and Goliath. To Kamen, the story illustrated how that little piece of technology took out that really big problem.

SLINGSHOT, a feature documentary film by director Paul Lazarus, focuses on the life of the iconoclastic and brilliant inventor Dean Kamen as well as his 15-year quest to solve the world's safe water crisis.

Best known for inventing the Segway, Kamen holds over 440 patents. His passion and commitment to the impossible are as inspiring as his revolutionary inventions. Through Kamen and SLINGSHOT, we are one step closer to a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders.
