I watched a Mexican movie, Sin Nombre, in March this year. I love the scenes, story line, setting background and way the director perform his thoughts.
It is a story about seeking freedom either from the bondage of gang, or for a better life. It is two stories about a girl, Sayra, in an odyssey immigrating to New Jersey, and a boy, Willy, in a Mexican gang who lost lover because of the gang leader and wanted to get rid of his violent past. The two characters met in a gang rob mission on a freight car, when the gang leader was about to ravage Sayra.
It is a good reflection of Mexico society nowadays, including the culture of gangs, and phenomenon of the illegal immigrants searching American dreams, and so on.
I remember the most when Willy was chased by the gangster in the end. Sayra was just about to accross the river by a big buoy with the deliverer. I even cried out.
Sin Nombre is kind of a literary film. Many people may find it boring to watch films that are too serious or obscure. But i like it anyway.
