Power Trip

About This Movie

Power Trip immerses you in the chaotic and often grim world of post-Soviet Georgia, where an American energy company tries to tackle the crippling electricity crisis. It’s raw, and the atmosphere is thick with tension as you watch the interplay of corruption and desperation unfold. The pacing has this documentary-style ebb and flow, capturing candid moments that make you feel the weight of the people’s struggles. The film doesn’t shy away from the reality of street riots and political unrest, giving a gritty authenticity to its narrative. The performances from locals add to the film’s distinctiveness, offering real voices amid the corporate machinations. It's not just a story about energy; it’s about power in every sense.
