Review of Quinceañera (2006) by Erin S — 28 Mar 2008
Quinceanera a little movie with big heart was made for just under $250,000 in 2005 and went on to win awards and be the darling of the 2006 Sundance Awards. Quinceanera is a young woman's 'spiritual' coming out party when she is 15 yrs old.
This story tells of a young girl (Emily Rios) about to make her Quinceanera and finds she is pregnant. Her preacher father rejects her and she goes to live with her aging great uncle played magnificiantly by Chalo Gonzolez and her street thug cousin who also happens to be gay played equally as impressive by Jesse Garcia.
The great uncle shows love and acceptance to his niece and nephew & by that love his entire family has their own Quinceanera of sorts and lesson in love & family.
