Documentaries can be seen as a social practice of filmic discourse. They are essentially based on citation techniques ranging from vague allusions to exact reproductions. The present study emphasizes a characteristic effect of Michael Moore's film rhethoric which consists in the use of montage techniques in order make verbal, visual and acoustic discourses circulate. However, Moore's excessive use of discordant montage is eventually overcoming the standards of documentary film as genre. It leads to something new we would like to call docu-satire.
