Believing they were participating in a study on memory and learning, participants were asked to inflict apparently lethal shocks on a fellow human. Milgram later famously claimed that 65 per cent of us will blindly follow orders. Extensive research from Millard, who is Professor of Screen and Creative Arts at Macquarie University, reveals that Milgram ran more than 25 versions of his experiment but filmed only one.

Ivan Sen.s new film Mystery Road, which will open the Sydney Film Festival, is bypassing the established theatrical distributors in a rare departure from the usual distribution model.
Producer David Jowsey and writer-director Sen have decided to release the murder mystery on August 15 via Dark Matter, a company they own with Michael Wrenn.
The rationale: If the film turns a profit, that will go to the filmmakers, not the distributor. The producers are paying for the marketing costs, avoiding the standard 25%-30% fee charged by distributors..
They.ve hired the Melbourne-based Backlot Studios to negotiate terms with exhibitors for a flat fee. Distribution veteran Alan Finney is a consultant and Tracey Mair is coordinating the national marketing and publicity campaign.
The film stars Aaron Pedersen as an Aboriginal cop, Detective Jay Swan, who's called on to investigate the murder of a young Indigenous girl and realises a serial killer is at work.
