DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker Michael Moore travels overseas seeking good ideas instead of 
 conflict in “Where to Invade Next,” the free Second Saturday 
 Documentary Series offering for September. The film will be shown September 
 9 at 1:30 pm at Niles Discovery Church, 36600 Niles Blvd. at the corner of 
 Nursery Ave.\n\nThe director and on-camera narrator of such films as 
 “Bowling for Columbine” and “Roger and Me” visited countries that 
 have found solutions to social challenges, including healthcare, public 
 education, and criminal recidivism. When he found an idea he liked, he 
 planted an American flag to claim the idea for America.\n\nMoore visits a 
 Norwegian high security prison where the inmates have keys to their own 
 cells, pursue certificate training courses or college degrees, and the 
 guards carry no guns. Norway’s recidivism rate is 20 percent; the United 
 States’ is 80 percent.\n\nWhile taking a light-hearted approach to 
 serious problems, Moore acknowledges, “The American dream seems to be 
 alive and well everywhere but America.”\n\nAfter the screening, a 
 moderated discussion will be led by Peggy Elwell, co-coordinator of the 
 Low-Income Self-Help Center in San Jose, an active member of the Santa 
 Clara County Single-Payer Health Care Coalition, an organizer of the 
 Economic Justice Film Series, and a semi-retired librarian.\n\nThe Second 
 Saturday Documentary Series is co-sponsored by Niles Discovery Church and 
 the San Jose Peace and Justice Center. For more information about this
