Identifying Features (Spanish: Sin Señas Particulares) is a 2020 Mexican-Spanish drama film directed by Fernanda Veladez who co-wrote with Astrid Rondero.

[7] Jesus, a teenager from an impoverished region in Guanajuato, is convinced by his friend Rigo to leave their rural town and try their luck crossing the border to the United States.

Hopeful that Jesus might still be alive, and inspired by Chuya's words of encouragement during Rigo's funeral, Magdalena sets up north in search for her son.

She arrives at a government facility where the bodies of victims murdered by drug cartels and other criminal organizations are held.

A government official tells her that may of the bodies recovered were badly burnt therefore they can't be recognized through the blood test, but using the bag-pack she identified as evidence he tries to convince her that her son is dead.

However, when recognizing the body, Olivia is told that her son had died a few weeks prior, meaning that he was still alive during most of the time he had disappeared.

At a migrant shelter she meets La Regis, a woman that tells her that a bus was stopped a few months back and that most of the passengers were assaulted and murdered.

At Ocampo she meets Miguel, a teenage boy that had been working in the United States the past few years but who was recently deported back to Mexico.
