Super Pumped: The Battle For Uber tells the roller-coaster story of upstart transportation company Uber, embodying the highs and lows of Silicon Valley.

Oscar nominee Uma Thurman (Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill) stars as Arianna Huffington, the savvy businesswoman and co-founder of The Huffington Post, who was an Uber board member.
