The Film Scribes Podcast Episode 36 An Interview with Ike Barinholtz Director and star of THE OATH

Thank you for checking out episode 36 of The Film Scribes Podcast. This week Rich Heimlich (/comment), Stephen Silver (Splice Today, Philly Voice) and Dan Tabor (Phawker, Cinapse.co) chat with Ike Barinholtz Writer/Director and star of the black comedy THE OATH about a fictional loyalty oath all citizens must sign before Black Friday. The film focuses on Chris (Ike Barinholtz), a liberal who refuses to sign the oath and won’t let his family forget it, when they come to say with his family on Thanksgiving. What begins as a rousing political satire, gets dark quickly when a fictional branch of Homeland Security shows up to ask Chris about a report he was keeping people from signing the oath.
