Quinceanera

Quinceanera: This small film made for less than 500k, is proof that the element of “story” matters most. There are no known actors in the film and the characters speak sometimes in Spanish and sometimes in English. Yet the movie works because of the strength of the story. We follow a young Mexican girl as she is about to have her Quinceanera (15th Birthday). All is good until she finds out she is pregnant. Her religious father wants her out of the house, because he finds her to be a disgrace to the family. She then finds “family” from an unlikely source.
