2006 Sundance Film Festival, World Cinema Audience Award; 2006 Amnesty International, Seattle, Winner Audience Award. The impoverished Central Americans who leave their countries in hopes of a better life in the United States have a rough road ahead of them. De Nadie shows how, during their perilous 2500-mile journey through Mexico, they put their last money, dignity, health and life on the line. Mexican filmmaker Tin Dirdamal follows a number of emigrants in a refugee center in southern Mexico, from where they hitch illegal rides on freight trains to the northern border. Apart from the Mexican immigration service and police, the emigrants are threatened by the security service of the railroad companies, the criminal La Mara Salvatrucha gang and the train itself.
