Making its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, where it won directing and cinematography awards, SIN NOMBRE is an epic dramatic thriller from director Cary Fukunaga.

Along the way she crosses paths with a teenaged Mexican gang member, El Casper (Edgar M. Flores), who is maneuvering to outrun his violent past and elude his unforgiving former associates. Together they must rely on faith, trust and street smarts if they are to survive their increasingly perilous journey towards the hope of new lives. Running time: 1h36m. Cast: Paulina Gaitan, Edgar Flores, Kristyan Ferrer, Tenoch Huerta Mejía, Diana García, Héctor Jiménez. In Spanish with subtitles.
