Public invited to free film screening

OGDEN — The public is invited to view an award-winning documentary, “The Oath,” about two men who were involved with al-Qaeda, at 7 p.m. Thursday at Peery’s Egyptian Theater, 2415 Washington Blvd.

The free showing is co-sponsored by the ACLU of Utah, Egyptian Theater, and the Unitarian Universalist Church of Ogden.

A review of the film states, “From the director of the Oscar-nominated ‘My Country, My Country,’ ‘The Oath’ is a spectacularly gripping documentary that unspools like a great political thriller.

“It’s the crosscut tale of two men whose fateful meeting propelled them on divergent courses with Al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, 9/11, Guantanamo Bay Prison and the U.S. Supreme Court.”
