Moore used that video in “Fahrenheit 11/9” without permission. “Plaintiff’s on-the-ground footage gave Defendants a unique, boots-on-the-ground perspective on the presidential visit,” the lawsuit states. “Plaintiff’s choice of words, his race, and his anticipation of the event provided dramatic value for the story Mr.

Moore told in the film. Defendants could not have obtained that perspective from any other source, and it certainly contributed to any success the film had.”The film made $6.7 million in sales and box office, the lawsuit notes, and continues to earn money from DVD, Blu-ray, streaming and rental sales.Clemons is seeking unspecified damages.
