Compliance



Compliance is a Sundance festival film coming out August 17th, based off a strange premise supposedly grounded in real life. Crackpot 'cops' calling fast food restaurants and making threats based off of false accusations, resulting in bizarre instances of workers getting harassed and violated by their managers following orders from these so called detectives. Compliance without question.

The most infamous case of this accident occurred in 2004 at a McDonalds in Kentucky which resulted in an ordeal for a female employee that lasted close to 4 hours. It also resulted in the arrest of a 37 year old man called David Stewart, whose phone scam career lasted over 12 years. The controversial movie drew the ire of Sundance crowds unaware of the fact that such an event had actually occurred in real life. If you're looking for a movie to challenge your notions on just how far certain people will go, look no further.
