In a politically fractured America, Chris, portrayed by Ike Barinholtz, faces an impossible Thanksgiving. The government's controversial loyalty oath divides the nation, and Chris's refusal to sign it ignites a powder keg within his own family. As tensions escalate and opposing viewpoints clash, Chris must navigate the holiday minefield without completely detonating his relationships or succumbing to the encroaching chaos. Will he survive Thanksgiving with his family and sanity intact?

How to stream with ExpressVPN

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is an app that encrypts your internet connection and masks your IP address, allowing you to stream securely and bypass restrictions.

Why Use a VPN for Streaming?

- Increase Privacy: A VPN protects your data on non-secure public Wi-Fi networks by creating an encrypted tunnel, safeguarding your personal information while you stream.

How to get started with ExpressVPN:
