See Infinite Border instead - despite Fukunaga’s claims about documentaries exploiting people, Sin Nombre really only further exoticizes the border and Latin America as a dangerous place full of gangs and violence. I might have liked it as an entertaining movie if it weren’t for the director’s obnoxious Q&A session beforehand - seriously, riding a train for awhile and talking to imprisoned gang members doesn’t prevent you from being a hipster douchebag.
Now if only Gael and Diego were sexy, violent gang members in the movie……
I had to look up where I remembered her from - that horrendous/unintentionally hilarious Disney movie “Gotta Kick It Up” with America Ferrera.
