Storyline

Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker Michael Moore makes an offer to the Pentagon to immediately take on the task of invading faraway countries as a one-man army. There are three rules in the film director’s campaign: don’t shoot anyone, don’t plunder any oil, bring back something useful for his fellow-Americans. His research trip in fact serves another agenda of his own devising: he is convinced that somewhere in the world solutions already exist for the USA’s pressing social problems. And so he collects examples of a better quality of life and better working conditions elsewhere – such as Italy’s holiday entitlement regulations, France’s school meals, Finland’s education system, Germany’s approach to accounting for its past, and Iceland’s gender equality.

Born in Flint, USA in 1954, his first documentary „Roger &Me“ (1989) was a trailblazer for modern documentary filmmaking. With the Oscar-winning „Bowling For Columbine“ (2002) and „Fahrenheit 9/11“ (winner of the Palme d'Or at Cannes in 2004), he created further box-office hit documentaries. He is also a successful writer of non-fiction. Michael Moore lives in Traverse City, Michigan, where he has founded the Traverse City Film Festival.
