Who Killed the Electric Car?
A lack of consumer confidence... or conspiracy?
Directed by Chris Paine
Produced by Plinyminor, Electric Entertainment
A forensic documentary investigation into the deliberate suppression of electric vehicle technology, blending technological optimism with institutional critique and conspiratorial unease.
