REVENGE OF THE ELECTRIC CAR IN CINEMAS 20 JULY 2012
In 2006, as many as 5,000 modern electric cars were destroyed by the major car companies that built them. Today the electric car is back... with a vengeance. New feature documentary Revenge Of The Electric Car, chronicles the greatest shift in technology in automobile history and comes to UK cinemas on 20 July 2012 from Dogwoof.
With almost every major car manufacturer working on creating new electric models, REVENGE OF THE ELECTRIC CAR follows the race to be first, the best, and to win the hearts and minds of the public around the world. We watch as these cars are developed from a concept into a working product, and see the car makers themselves struggle with the economy, the press, each other, and the car buying public.
Director Chris Paine takes his film crew behind the closed doors of Nissan, General Motors, the Silicon Valley start-up Tesla Motors, and an independent car converter named Greg "Gadget" Abbott to find the story of the global resurgence of electric cars.
Narrated by Tim Robbins and with appearances from Danny DeVito and Jon Favreau, this fascinating film follows the drama and excitement to find out who will win the race to create the ultimate electric car.
