Co-written and directed by Natalia Beristain, Netflix’s ‘Noise’ (originally titled ‘Ruido’) is a Mexican drama movie that revolves around a mother named Julia, searching for her daughter, Ger, who has been missing for several years. She is also the embodiment of all the struggling women, including the mothers, daughters, or sisters, who have been subjected to violence and injustice in their own country.
