Retribution (Spanish: El desconocido, "The stranger") is a 2015 Spanish thriller film directed by Dani de la Torre. It was screened in the Venice Days section of the 72nd Venice International Film Festival.
Carlos, a bank executive, drives the kids to school in the morning. After starting the car, he receives an anonymous call in a phone that has been left inside and he is told a bomb has been placed under each of the car’s seats, set to explode if any of them leaves their seated position. The devices will be deactivated only once Carlos transfers a large sum of money into the caller's account.
