AUGUST 19, 2020 TESLA IFC FILMS
FILM: 7:00 PM PDT | Q&A: 8:35 PM PDT
Nikola Tesla (Ethan Hawke) is a brilliant European-born inventor who wants to change the world with his creations. To bring his revolutionary electrical system to fruition, he partners with fellow scientist Thomas Edison (Kyle MacLachlan), but grows increasingly frustrated by the American’s greed. The story of Tesla and the legendary “Current War” is told by his associate Anne Morgan (Eve Hewson), offering a distinctly modern voice in this scientific historical drama.
