Michael Moore’s Latest Film Added As Centerpiece to Chicago Film Festival

The 51st Chicago International Film Festival will present the Midwest Premiere of Michael Moore’s latest film, Where To Invade Next on Fri, Oct 23, 2015 at AMC River East (322 E. Illinois St, Chicago). Director Michael Moore is scheduled to attend. The film’s World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival drew a standing ovation and widespread acclaim. It also sold the New York Film Festival in a matter of hours.

Director Michael Moore has a long and rich history with the Chicago International Film Festival, having premiered his groundbreaking debut Roger and Me at the Chicago International Film Festival in 1989. Moore came back to present his 2002 film Bowling for Columbine, which won him an Oscar for Best Documentary. Moore most recently returned to the Festival last year to be present for the Festival’s 50th Anniversary.

”Michael Moore is quite a character and his films are important. He’s changed the way we look at the documentary in so many ways. You either love him or you hate him, but he’s definitely a director to watch.” says Founder & Artistic Director of the Chicago International Film Festival Michael Kutza. “Where To Invade Next doesn’t disappoint.”
