Sin Nombre

Drama. A Honduran teenager hoping to illegally enter the US gets caught up with members of the Mexican Mara Salvatrucha gang on a train, with irrevocable consequences.

Sayra is a young woman from Honduras on an odyssey through Central America in the hope of illegally entering into the US. Casper is a young gang member from southern Mexico, reluctantly sworn to the terrifying Mara Salvatrucha gang, ruled over by leader Lil' Mago. The gang's newest recruit is Casper's 12-year-old friend Smiley, who is barely aware of what he has just let himself in for.

When Casper, Smiley and Lil'Mago board a northbound train with the intention of robbing the travelling would-be immigrants, Sayra's and Casper's paths cross, with irrevocable consequences.
