Filmmaker Michael Moore will bring his new documentary to Sacramento early next month, in a debut that will no doubt add some new fuel to the capital city’s debate over health care reform.

The new documentary, Sicko, debuted this month at the Cannes Film Festival and opens nationwide in late June. But the movie will have a special screening in Sacramento on June 12, hosted by Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez.

Depending on your politics, Moore’s previous movies have made him one of the most loved or hated documentary filmmakers of his era. In Sicko, he chronicles the dark side of the nation’s industry, and takes three ailing 9/11 rescue workers on a trip to Cuba in search of medical attention.

News of Moore’s appearance in Sacramento comes as lawmakers and interest groups continue to grapple with a series of health care reform proposals, with Speaker Nunez carrying one of the prominent plans. “The timing couldn’t be more perfect,” said Nunez spokesman Steve Maviglio.

Maviglio says the Assembly leader will meet with Moore earlier in the day before the showing of the movie, and that Sicko confirms much of what Democrats say is wrong with the system. “This documentary is an unvarnished look at how these companies have made health care unaffordable and inaccessible,” he said.

It will be a busy trip to Sacramento for Moore, as he’s also scheduled to appear at a legislative hearing, and at an afternoon Capitol rally sponsored by the California Nurses Association. The movie premiere, we’re told, is invite-only that evening.
