A documentary that seeks to separate fact, fiction and legend, tracks Michael Moore on tour during the release of the explosive Fahrenheit 9/11, all the while chronicling the politically supercharged climate in America that has fuelled Moore’s transition from filmmaker to icon of the political left.
The film is a controversial, well-rounded portrait of Michael Moore the man, and how he uses documentaries to affect political change. This “muckraking” film also explores Moore’s documentary technique and reveals many incendiary surprises.
The film takes place during Michael’s Slacker Uprising Tour and explores the politically divisive climate in America that has helped Michael Moore rise to prominence. By looking at Moore’s pop cult status, the film examines the impact of celebrity on our culture.
