Description: Hard Problems is a feature documentary about the students who represented the United States at the 2006 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).

Above all, Hard Problems captures the spirit of math competitions at the highest level. The 82-minute production, filmed in high definition, premiered in January, 2008.
