In the United States, spelling contests are very popular: a complex word is set to the participant, and he must say it in the first way without errors. Eleven -year -old Akila successfully participates in competitions in her school, avoiding a single mistake, and falls into a school tournament. With her performance, she attracts the attention of a specialist in English, who believes that Akila is able to win a national spelling competition.
