How the Garcia Girls Spent Their Summer

Description

In the summer heat of a small Arizona boarder town, sparks start to fly for three Garcia girls. America Ferrera (Ugly Betty) plays 17-yeard-old Blanca, who discovers romance, love, and lust for the first time with the new bad boy in town. Her divorced mother Lolita (Elizabeth Pena, Rush Hour), seems to have hit a dry spell until the husband of one of her customers pays a visit. Meanwhile, Blanca’s grandmother Dona Genoveva (Lucy Gallardo), enlists her gardener Don Pedro to give her driving lessons, learning about more than cars in the process. Combining raw passion with the graceful images of a rural Southwestern town, Georgina Garcia Riedel tells a story of a Mexican American family that speaks a universal language to women of all ages.
