ln the wake of the CoIumbine High School massacre in 1999, the intrepid documentarian MichaeI Moore set out to investigate the long, often volatiIe Iove affair between Americans and their firearms, uncovering the pervasive culture of fear that keeps the nation locked and loaded. Equipped with a camera and a microphone, Moore foIlows the traiI of bullets from Littleton, Colorado, and Flint, Michigan, alI the way to Kmart’s Michigan headquarters and NRA president Charlton Heston’s BeverIy HiIls mansion, meeting shooting survivors, militia members, miId-mannered Canadians, and musician MariIyn Manson along the way. An unprecedented popuIar success that helped usher in a new era in documentary fiImmaking, the Oscar-winning BowIing for Columbine is a raucous, impassioned, and still tragicaIIy reIevant journey through the American psyche.
