The documentary recently won the prestigious Palme d'Or award at this year's Cannes Film Festival.
Michael Moore's film made history, winning the Palme d'Or at Cannes
It is only the second documentary in Cannes' history to be awarded the festival's top prize.
The film explores the Iraq war and alleges links between the Bush family and Osama Bin Laden.
In the trailer, images of President Bush, joking with his supporters, are cut together with pictures from the Iraq war.
It shows clips about the overnight printing of the US Patriot Act, with senators admitting no-one read it, and President Bush had planes authorised to pick up Osama Bin Laden's family.
Global attention
Moore, who won an Oscar for his anti-gun documentary Bowling for Columbine, has said he hopes Americans see Fahrenheit 9/11 before they vote in this year's presidential election.
Moore, who makes no secret of his anti-Bush stance, thanked the Cannes jury for bringing his film to global attention.
"You will ensure that the American people will see this movie...You have put a huge light on this."
"I want to make sure if I do nothing else for the rest of this year that those who died in Iraq have not died in vain."
