The Speed Cubers

This is mostly a story about the the Autistic child Max, who became the worst best speedcuber, and his friendship/ the mentorship of Feliks, the former world champion. I was a bit disappointed, but the documentary is not bad. The speed cubing world and competitions are just the setting for the story about Max. Shows that when used right, autism is a skillset that can be used to make world records.

Yet here we are. Whether you are into the hobby or not, you should definitely give this one a try!

My heart went out to the parents of Max and to Feliks. This short documentary masterfully told a beautiful story between the unconditional love of the parents of Max and his special friendship with a world champion cuber Feliks, As someone who is not a cuber, the drama is still very intense and the relationships formed around Max warmed my heart. This is a gem that will likely be overlooked by many but i am so glad to catch it on netflix.

I know nothing about Rubik's Cubes or the art of speed-cubing, but I thoroughly enjoyed this documentary. I just clicked on this randomly expecting it to be forgettable, but I felt so much emotion during this docu, so if you're like me and you know nothing about cubing, you'll still learn something: the power of friendship.

A documentary about the cube owners. Follow the story of two boys who have been world champions in building cubes at speed. The interesting thing is not only to see the competition, it is to see the vision that parents have about one of the boys who has autism, the total support they give him. Entertaining. Quality. Stimulating Talk about discipline, solidarity and friendship. Of short duration which makes it digestible and easy to see.
