Paul Devlin’s documentary, about
the tragicomic effects of a Western company’s
takeover of the former Soviet republic of
Georgia’s ramshackle power supply, is a
harrowing, hilarious look at technology and societal
collapse. The film is admirably fair-minded—we
see the company’s rationale while feeling
citizens’ ire—while offering that rare
combination of drama, compassion, and social insight.
