Adventure & Knowledge - Nicola Tesla

Our modern world would be impossible without him. Nikola Tesla made electricity accessible to the masses through his research and inventions, laying what is perhaps the most important foundation for the industrial age: alternating current. However, the Serb, who moved to America at a young age, never became wealthy. Even during his lifetime, Nikola Tesla was a legend. In his experimental lectures, he fascinated audiences by making fireballs travel across his body. Countless stories surround the brilliant inventor, his extravagance, and his often compulsive behavior. But what is true and what is a product of his imagination? The CD attempts to unravel the myth of Tesla. It tells of the colorful life of the inventor, his gambling addiction, his great rival Edison, the people who believed in him and paved his way with their money, his successes and failures, fame and bitter poverty. And above all: the boundless imagination of Tesla, with which he was so often and so far ahead of his time. An exciting adventure feature with original interviews, music, and sounds.
