Fahrenheit 9/11 is a 2004 documentary film written and directed by Michael Moore. The film is a critique of the presidency of George W. Bush and the events leading up to the Iraq War. Moore uses a combination of interviews, news footage, and personal anecdotes to explore the aftermath of the September 11 attacks and the decision to invade Iraq.

The film focuses on topics such as the War on Terror, the response to the 9/11 attacks, and the policies of the Bush administration. Moore presents a critical view of the administration's handling of the attacks and the subsequent war in Iraq, arguing that the true motives behind the invasion were not driven by a desire to combat terrorism, but rather by a desire to control Iraq's oil resources and to expand American influence in the Middle East.

Fahrenheit 9/11 premiered at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival and was released in the United States on June 25, 2004. The film received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its critique of the Bush administration and others criticizing its perceived liberal bias and methodology. Despite this, the film was a commercial success, grossing over $222 million at the box office.

The film's title, Fahrenheit 9/11, is a reference to the American system of measurement, specifically the Fahrenheit scale. The number "9/11" represents the date of the September 11 attacks. The title is a play on words, suggesting that the events of 9/11 were seen by the Bush administration as an opportunity to implement new policies, much like a change in temperature. Moore uses this phrase to convey his argument that the events of 9/11 were exploited by the administration for its own purposes.
