Michael Moore in TrumpLand

Michael Moore in TrumpLand is a 2016 documentary film by Michael Moore[3][4][5][6][7] about the 2016 United States presidential election campaign. The film is based on a one-person show that Moore originally wanted to perform in Midland Theatre in Newark, Ohio on October 7, but management of the Midland Theatre chose not to honor a rental contract.[8][9][10] He eventually held the show at the Murphy Theatre in Wilmington, Ohio, with the movie based on a recording of that performance over two nights in October.[11][12]
