In the four years since filmmaker Chris Paine released the documentary
Who Killed the Electric Car?, electric vehicles have been revived. In that film, Paine documented the corporate leaders, government officials and consumers who embraced SUVs over electric cars, exploring the larger story of our car culture in the process. Paine is back with a new film in the works:
The Revenge of the Electric Car, set for release in 2011. As part of Planet Indy series, spend an evening with Paine. See
Who Killed the Electric Car? at 5:30 pm, then at 7:30 pm hear the filmmaker discuss the latest progress on electric vehicles, the relationship between good design and sustainability, and new ways of thinking about mobility. After the program, see an electric car up close and get information about companies making electric vehicles in Indiana. Ticket admits you to film, talk or both.
Presented as part of IUPUI’s Common Theme Project with promotional support from the Hoosier Environmental Council, The Goods, USGBC Indiana, and Residential Green Builders of Indianapolis.
