Not Forgotten is a 2009 independent thriller written and directed by Dror Soref starring Simon Baker and Paz Vega. The film takes place on the Texas-Mexico border and tells the story of a kidnapping plot involving the ritualistic cult Santa Muerte. The protagonist Jack Bishop's dark past is slowly uncovered as the kidnapping case unravels. Jack Bishop works as a loan officer in Del Rio, Texas and is remarried to Amaya Bishop , living with her and his daughter Toby Bishop from his first marriage. Toby is kidnapped by an unknown perpetrator leading to the involvement of the local police and... eventually the FBI. The FBI begins inquiring in Jack's past only to find out he has no official records dating back farther than ten years, and there is no evidence showing how his first wife had died or where she was buried. A local petty criminal and repeated sex offender is initially thought to be the culprit, but it is revealed that the dangerous cult-like religious movement Santa Muerte, popular within Mexican criminal circles, might be involved.
