- DirectorSidney ReedStarsJack ByrdNicky ConneryBrandyn GravesWe've all read about the great scientists and inventors in our school textbooks: Thomas Edison, Madam Curie, Albert Einstein, and more. But one name seems to be missing in each one - a man who swept the world into the modern age of technology with his daring and incredibly futuristic inventions. His name was Nikola Tesla. Our film is about this brilliant scientist and the hardships he faced after coming to America. Not only was he known for his intense rivalry with Thomas Edison, but Tesla had a streak of bad financial luck with the companies he partnered with. This biopic film reveals the truth about who invented what, the praise and criticism Tesla faced over his long life, and the way he completely changed the world's knowledge of technology at the time.
