Michael Moore is Back

Controversy filmmaker Michael Moore release his new documentary film “Sicko” a political film on the ferocious attack on the US health care industry.

The film deals with expensive American health system hated by the majority of the population. Moore accompanies a number of rescue workers injured the 99/11 attacks to the U.S Guantanamo Bay detainment camp, before moving to Havana in Cuba, so they can receive medical treatment they would otherwise not be able to afford. The documentary includes a story about a women whose daughter died because the nearest hospital couldn’t couldn’t treat her and a man who was told the cost of reattaching his two finger would be $60,000 for the middle finger and $12,000 for the ring finger.

Moore as well has interviews with people who died before the film was finished, it also shows the comparison of health care from Canada, France and the United Kingdom where Moore himself travels to each of these countries and investigates each of their health systems.

The New York Times

Sicko “presents a series of heart-rending anecdotes meant to illustrate systemic failures and foul-ups under the nation’cystss insurance industry – even if many of the major pieces of evidence are ones that have been widely reported elsewhere and in some cases date back 20 years,”

Karen Ignagni, president of Washington trade group America’s Health Insurance Plans

“If the movie results in members of Congress and governors putting this issue squarely on the table as the No. 1 priority, we will be part of that discussion and will welcome it,”

Sicko will be released in Canada and the United States on June the 29^th, Moore will be asserting concerns about America’s health care system are second only to the Iraq war.
