Sin señas particulares

With deep sensitivity to the tragedy of disappearances in Mexico, Sin Señas Particulares stirs a contemporary social tragic hornet's nest mercilessly.

Ravaged by violence, where stories of loss are common and devastating, it is brutal how the film captures the normalization of absurdity.

Fernanda Valadez directs the film with intimacy and contemplation, which puts the focus on silent suffering and expressive faces marked by pain.

The performances of Mercedes Hernández (Magdalena) and David Illescas (Miguel) are deeply human, honestly conveying the complex and contradictory coexistence of optimism and lack of hope, in the search for justice where we are just statistics for the government and the police.

Combining raw realism with poetic visual symbolism, it soon transforms into a beautiful and painful cinematic experience. Claudia Becerril's photography captivates, reflecting both the immensity of the world and the loneliness of her characters.
