While on a road trip, Ana and Mateo leave their son on the side of the road, just for a bit, as a form of punishment. But he's nowhere to be found when they return. As they frantically search for the boy, a long-simmering, unspoken conflict comes to a boil. Filmed as one continuous take, THE PUNISHMENT is confident and courageous with a clockwork-tight script that will have you gripping the edge of your seat.
