If you like watching foreign films, this is one worth watching.
It's the story of two polarized worlds coming together by chance/destiny/divine provision (you choose).
The film addresses an ever-growing threat to Latin America: La Mara Salvatrucha. For those not familiar with Mara Salvatrucha (MS), this is a gang that originated in El Salvador, and has since reached countless Latin American countries.
The film also examines the coming of age in this brutal world.
Sin Nombre is horrific and beautiful all at once.
You make a convincing case. I have never seen this movie, but always wanted to, because it won many awards. I will have to watch it for the next iteration of this course.
