NAMELESS, 20min., USA, Crime

Directed by Jason Wen

Nameless is a crime short film. A young man, a mob hitman, and an undercover agent all have their eyes on a mysterious package that has different values for each of them. Blinded by their narrow vision, they got themselves into a chaotic situation… Belief and seeing are both often wrong. We only see parts of a story at times, because we only see what we want to believe.
