Evanston's long-running Reeltime film and discussion series is pleased to present a FREE screening of the new documentary REVENGE OF THE ELECTRIC CAR, a follow-up to the acclaimed WHO KILLED THE ELECTRIC CAR by director Chris Paine.
As more electric cars than ever before start to arrive in American showrooms and driveways, filmmaker Chris Paine takes his film crew behind the closed doors of Nissan, GM, and the Silicon Valley start-up Tesla Motors. With unprecedented insider access, REVENGE OF THE ELECTRIC CAR (2011, 90 min) is a fascinating and entertaining chronicle of these automakers' intense race to become the leader of the new electric car market.
