The latest documentary from shock-tactic guru Michael Moore, this time he targets the American Health Care Industry. Sticking to his tried-and true one-man approach, Moore sheds lights on the complicated medical affairs of individuals and local communities.
He explores the exorbitant fees that get charged, and meets the American citizens who can't afford or are denied healthcare. As always, he's got the horrifying true stories: A 60ish couple, both of them former professionals with good jobs, lose everything when the two of them incur serious healthcare costs; they're forced to move into a small storage room in their daughter's basement. And a young mother in Southern California tells how her baby died: The infant was seriously ill, and her treatment was delayed as she was turned away from one hospital and shuttled to another.
