Fascinating doc about how the most promising car technology in decades was derailed by a combination of big business, government and a variety of other factors. While I'm sure there are detractors who will say this is a lopsided portrayal of a complicated issue, this film actually made me angry while I watched it. The public notion about electric automobiles or any alternative to the internal combustion engine for that matter is that it will never work, not practical for daily use, etc. The argument laid out in this movie proves that such a car can (and does) exist. Who wouldn't want a car that doesnt require gas, can be plugged in at home, and get upwards of 100 miles per charge? The arguments against the technology are clearly meant to protect those who profit from burning fossil fuels...a must see for anyone who wishes to reduce their daily impact on the environment...
