The film opens on an afternoon at Ohio restaurant. The manager Sandra (Ann Dowd) received a phone call from a man posing as a police officer. He informs that Becky (Dreame Walker) an employee has stolen money from a customer. In order to get back the money and for the reputation of the restaurant Sandra had to obey what the man had told her. Armed with nothing more than an authoritative manner, the caller convinced the manager and several others to corner young Becky, strip her naked and over the course of nearly five hours- sexually violate and humiliate her.
The story points to a serious criminal case where a poor employ who can't challenge the authority and her manager have to suffer a lot. Walker had devoted her in the making of the character Becky to showcase the society that one can be humiliated this much. Sandra's character is the most complicated figure in the film. The feeling that Compliance create may trouble everyone long after it is over.
