Tesla
Directed by David Grubin
A cerebral historical documentary that traces Tesla's revolutionary contributions while grappling with the tragedy of a visionary overshadowed by his own eccentricity and the world's incomprehension.
Meet Nikola Tesla, the genius engineer and tireless inventor whose technology revolutionized the electrical age of the 20th century. Although eclipsed in fame by Edison and Marconi, it was Tesla's vision that paved the way for today's wireless world. His fertile but undisciplined imagination was the source of his genius but also his downfall, as the image of Tesla as a mad scientist came to overshadow his reputation as a brilliant innovator.
