Eddie Fleming, a normal guy, is sitting in a dark, locked room. At five this morning he was sleeping peacefully in his bed when he was rudely picked up and thrown into this room, where John Steele, a man who knows what's what, is asking him a bunch of questions. Why? And then there are other forces at play that neither of them has considered, other players, with other plans... The balance of power could change quite quickly.

Declaration
film director
"The Interview is constructed as a process of progressive unveiling, but without the signs, the anticipations or warnings that are typical of conventional dramatic structure. We find out what is really happening at the same time Eddie does, and we are just as disoriented and shocked. Then, the truth about Eddie is even more disconcerting. But is it the truth?" (C. Monahan).
