A surprisingly advanced at least for me look into the world of electrons. Using plenty of animation and lots of interesting experiments the film proves… Something. It was a little too advanced for me, but interesting to look at nevertheless. I seem to have missed that part about the inauguration of Thomas Jefferson though.
