Canana, the company created by Gael García and Diego Luna, will produce “Without a Name”, a film that tackles the problems of immigrants.Canana has already started filming it’s next project: a story about the challanges and problems that Central Americans face during their way through Mexico to come to the United States.
The film, titled “Without a Name”, began filming in the State of Morelos, en the center of the country, and it will continue to the coastal state of Veracruz and Chiapas, boarding Guatemala. The project is the first work by Cary Fukunaga, an American-Japanese filmmaker who has already made the short films Victory for Chinese and Kofi.
The principal actors will be a Paulina Gaytán (Trade) and the child Christian Ferrer. Pablo Cruz, the third founding member of Canana, said that they decided to present the conflict on the Mexican border “where the immigration authorities are worse than the gringos.”
The movie will be coproduced by the American company Focus. Cruz added that “this movie is of few resources, like a Mexican movie is filmed, 100%,” which is a part of the philosophy of Canana. They hope that Without a Name will come to movie theatres by the end of next year.
