Synopsis:
This amazing documentary gives long overdue recognition to a great and
misunderstood man of science. The life of Nikola Tesla is an inspiring
example of the power of one man to change the world with technology and
revolutionary ideas.
Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) was one of the most
fascinating scientists of the 20th century. He invented, developed or
imagined the technology that brought us electricity, remote control,
neon and florescent lighting, radio transmission and much more... all
the basic inventions that now connect the world with power and
information.
He was a brilliant and charismatic immigrant whose
talent took him to the height of celebrity. He locked horns with Thomas
Edison, J. Pierpont Morgan, Guglielmo Marconi, and George Westinghouse.
Mark Twain praised his genius. They are all characters in this program,
the very first to tell the full story of Tesla's life and work.
Like
many geniuses, Tesla was not a conventional man. He gave his life to
realize his visions, while others made millions with his inventions.
Tragically, he died penniless and nearly forgotten.
