这部剧的剧情由一具少女尸体的发现而引发，这具没有生命迹象的尸体出现在一个小镇外的沙漠中。由于无人认领这具尸体，刚刚离婚、热衷于真实犯罪故事且自己也刚失去孩子的诺埃尔·阿尔·萨凡开始痴迷地介入此事。尽管时间紧迫，这起少女离奇死亡案似乎注定会成为一桩悬案，但诺埃尔……

The drama is sparked by the discovery of the lifeless body of a teenage girl in the desert outside a small town. When no one claims the body, Noelle Al Saffan, a newly divorced, true crime aficionado who recently lost a child of her own, gets obsessively involved. Despite a ticking clock that seemingly guarantees the girls’ senseless death will be discarded as a cold case, Noelle is determined to identify the body and uncover the truth. She slowly unravels a mystery entangled within a traditional society in transition, where women are learning to create more space for themselves and to take control of their own destinies.

创作缘起：　　电影《来历不明》的创作缘起是基于一个事实、一则传说、一点现状三个方面的，下面进行简要的描述。        一个事实——疯狂天文爱好者的故事。影片的主线是关于一个疯狂天文爱好者“疯子”寻找小行星的故事，这部分并不是虚构的，而是一件真实的事情，往往将虚构建立在真实的基础上，更能引起人们的好奇。这个故事的原型是导演2005年在一本天文杂志中读到的，有一位女天文爱好者用自己制作的设备，在戈壁中展开观测，经过几年的努力他终于发现一颗新的小行星，遗憾的是由于晚于日本的一位天文学家几个小时而没能以自己的名字命名。时至今日那位爱好者依然坚持驻守在戈壁中，他的奋斗目标就是真正能够以自己的名字命名一颗小行星。这个故事是导演创作这部电影的最原始的动力，用他的话来说：这件事情本身就是一部非常好的电影素材，只要稍加润色就能成为一部很好的商业电影。经过7年的努力，楚童终于将这个想法付诸实践，完成了自己的电影导演处女作《来历不明》。        一则传说——星槎的传说。星槎（读音同“茶”），字面直译是来自外星球的竹筏，这种说法来自于中国的很多古籍，据考证是中国古代对类似于UFO的不明飞行物的称呼。有很多史料都对此事进行了记载，而现在流传的牛郎织女的传说，就是来自于古代对星槎的描述。晋张华《博物志•杂说下》：“年年八月有浮槎，去来不失期。人有奇志，立飞阁于槎上，多赍粮，乘槎而去。十余日中，犹观星月日辰。自后芒芒忽忽，亦不觉昼夜。去十余日，奄至一处，有城廓状，居舍甚严，遥望宫中多织妇，见一丈夫牵牛渚次饮之。”这段文字大概描述的是古代的某人乘着八月出现的不明飞行物，到了银河，见到牛郎织女的事情。当时由于人们的无知将种种不能解释的事情都编撰成为神话，很多事情到了现在都得到了科学的解释，而唯独UFO至今还是一个谜。这样影片中星槎元素的运用就变得很有趣，既是考古，又是科幻，让观众既看到了过去，又对未来充满好奇。        一点现状——中国电影的现状。自中国电影走上商业化道路，伴随而产生的是种种前所未见的问题，尤其是最近几年，部分电影创作者急功近利，对于故事、剧本的要求逐渐下降，用已有的成熟的电影类型的外壳，套在一个简单俗套的故事上来生产电影。赢取票房的主要手段也不再是电影本身，而是大制作、大明星、大宣传等脱离核心的外在因素。面对这样的现状，楚童首先从“庐山之外”看到了问题的存在，继而通过自己的实践，试图让自己的作品回归电影的本真。所以这部《来历不明》的剧本创作经历了长达六年的时间，虽然制作成本不高，也没有庞大的明星阵容，但电影无论在立意、题材还是在表现手法上都有了很多创新。毕竟是第一次做导演拍摄电影，楚童对自己的这部作品也有很多的不满之处，但无疑的是，《来历不明》一定会是中国商业电影的一抹亮色。
