Fahrenheit 11/9

The 2018 documentary film directed and written by Michael Moore analyzes the causes and consequences of Donald Trump's victory in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The film examines various factors contributing to his election, including the role of the media, actions of the Democratic Party, and the influence of social movements. Moore draws comparisons between Trump's rise to power and historical events, such as Adolf Hitler's ascent, highlighting parallels in their rhetoric and methods. Special attention is given to the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, where residents suffered lead poisoning due to decisions made by local authorities. Moore criticizes the Obama administration's response to this crisis, asserting that it was inadequate and disappointing for affected citizens. The film also covers the protests by Parkland students advocating for gun control following a mass shooting at their school, emphasizing the importance of civic engagement and participation in the political process. "Fahrenheit 11/9" received generally positive reviews from critics; however, its box office performance was below expectations, grossing approximately $6.7 million worldwide.
