Synopsis:  

 

Inspired by true events, Plainview is the story of Missy, a small town restaurant manager in charge of Brian, her simple minded, yet endearing employee who's painfully aware of the incompetence that cause his register drawer to come up short. When Missy receives a detective's phone call concerning monetary thefts within the company, it's Brian who's the main suspect. Slowly, the detective talks her step-by-step into a thorough investigation of Brian. Each step grows increasingly humiliating, culminating into a full-body strip search, before Missy discovers her detective's true, horrifying intention. Now, after being berated by both her boss and the local sheriff, Missy's newfound empathy for Brian motivates her attempt to restore not just his dignity, but her own as well.
