After she goes missing, the body of Claudia's daughter Angela is discovered by the police. Five years later, Claudia is still distraught over the senseless murder when she receives a phone call from a young woman claiming to be her daughter. Bruno, a now-retired cop who was in charge of the original investigation, takes pity on Claudia and decides to help her track down the caller. What they find, however, is shadowy organization known only as "the Nameless" who may have some sort of supernatural power. [More]

Reviews for The Sin Nombre
I wound up admiring Balaguero's visual style, his imagery and cinematography, while remaining indifferent toward his characters, and hating his narrative.
If Darkness confused you, you'll be completely baffled by The Nameless
Cary Fukunaga makes an impressive feature-length debut with Sin Nombre, a gritty film.
Just how wildly the film flies off of the rails is enough to set eyeballs spinning--that is, if viewers' eyes are even open by that point.
