'Sicko' in Cannes

Updated on 19 May 2007

Why Michael Moore's latest controversial film could be seized by US authorities before it's even released.

His film Fahrenheit 9/11 made political waves - and took a prestigious Palme D'Or award at Cannes three years ago.

Now the film maker Michael Moore has returned to the city - to premiere a new documentary about the American healthcare system.

Our arts correspondent Nick Glass is at the Cannes Film festival to hear from the controversial director.
