Reflecting on the story, director and producer Angelina Jolie told People how she was drawn to Baricco’s “beautifully written novel.” She stated, “I chose to stay very true to it. My approach was to shape and edit more than to write”
In the film, Nina is trying to find the person whom she holds responsible for her family’s death. The character is determined to confront her past and find answers. “Having the opportunity to be directed by Angelina Jolie in ‘Without Blood’ was a profoundly enriching experience,” said Hayek per Variety.

Their target, a doctor — alone with his son and daughter — tries desperately to protect his children. Inevitably, bullets fly.”
It continues, “Years later, Nina (Hayek Pinault) engages Tito (Demián Bichir), a lottery seller, in what seems like casual conversation at his kiosk. But the encounter is anything but chance. It soon dawns on him. ‘I know who you are,’ Tito says, ‘and I know why you’ve come.’ As their conversation continues, it becomes clear that revenge casts a long shadow and takes many forms.”
