It wouldn't be election season without a Michael Moore documentary.

The Oscar-winning filmmaker's surprise new project, "Michael Moore in TrumpLand," opens in theaters Wednesday, but you can catch the premiere screening — with an appearance by the headliner himself — Tuesday evening at the IFC Center in the West Village. 

News of the film's release broke Monday, when Moore announced it on Twitter: 

"TrumpLand" brings to the big screen a one-man show Moore performed and filmed in the "small, Republican town" of Wilmington, Ohio, the first week of October, according to his Facebook page.

A vocal opponent of Trump, Moore said he had been previously banned from performing the show at a theater in another Ohio town. 

Complimentary tickets to the premiere of "TrumpLand" are available at the IFC Center box office at 323 Sixth Ave. starting at 8:30 p.m. Tickets are limited to two per person.

The film is the director's second release of the year, following February's “Where To Invade Next."
