Director Chris Paine gets extraordinary access behind the closed doors of Nissan, GM, and the Silicon Valley start-up Tesla Motors to chronicle the story of the global resurgence of electric cars. Do-it-yourself car converter Greg “Gadget” Abbott makes an unforgettable appearance in the film. Tim Robbins narrates.
