TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) -- One-time talk-show host Phil Donahue is expected to present his Iraq war documentary "Body of War" at the Traverse City Film Festival.
Filmmaker and festival founder Michael Moore tells the Traverse City Record-Eagle for a Friday story that the film following a paralyzed Iraq war veteran upon his return to the United States is a "very powerful story."
Donahue, who is executive producer and co-director of the film, also is expected to participate in a panel discussion with Moore during the festival.
Moore in May announced that Madonna will appear for a screening of "I Am Because We Are" -- her film on the impoverished nation of Malawi -- during the festival in the northern Michigan resort town.
The festival runs July 29 to Aug. 3.
