In the movie "Compliance," the story unfolds as Sandra, the manager of a fast-food restaurant, receives a call from a man claiming to be a police officer. He informs Sandra that one of her employees, Becky, has stolen money from a customer. The caller instructs Sandra to detain Becky in the restaurant's back office until the police arrive.
Initially skeptical of the caller's identity, Sandra consults one of her employees, Marti, who also has doubts. However, when the caller provides detailed information about the restaurant and their employees, Sandra becomes convinced of his authenticity. She decides to comply with his instructions, despite Becky's vehement denial of the allegations.
As the situation escalates, the anonymous caller continues to manipulate Sandra and her staff, exerting authority and psychological pressure over the phone. The caller commands Sandra to search Becky's belongings and strip-search her, claiming that it will help find the stolen money. Other employees are slowly drawn into the ordeal as Sandra and the caller convince them to assist with the humiliated and vulnerable Becky.
Throughout the film, Compliance explores the themes of power dynamics, obedience, and the dark side of authority. Sandra, driven by her desire to do the right thing and a fear of consequences, blindly follows the instructions of the caller. The manipulation intensifies, leading to increasingly invasive and degrading acts imposed on Becky, all under the guise of an investigation.
As the situation escalates even further, a fellow employee, Kevin, becomes skeptical of the situation and insists they contact the police directly. However, Sandra dismisses his concerns, deeply entangled in the psychological grip of the caller. Meanwhile, Becky's resistance slowly crumbles under the weight of the abusive treatment, creating a disturbing power imbalance within the restaurant.
Eventually, the police arrive at the restaurant, having been alerted by a concerned customer of the ongoing situation. The true identity of the caller, a local man named Officer Daniels, is revealed. The movie concludes with the aftermath of the events, exploring the psychological and emotional impact it has on those involved, particularly Sandra, Becky, and the others who were complicit in the abuse.
"Compliance" is based on true events, shedding light on the alarming psychological vulnerabilities that can lead to compliance with authority figures, even in the face of shocking and abusive behavior.
