"Echo Park L.A" is the multi-award winning , sizzling & energetic snapshot of what happens when teenage sexuality and the politics of L.A.'s wild Latin streets collide.
Magdalena is a Mexican-American girl in Echo Park, Los Angeles approaching her fifteenth-birthday. All she can think about is her boyfriend, her "Quinceanera" dress, and the Hummer Limo she hopes will carry her on her special day. But when she falls pregnant a few months before the celebration, she finds herself refected and forced from her home by her devoutly religious family.
Magdalena has no alternative but to shack up with her great-great uncle Tomas and cousin Carlos, a tough 'cholo' with a similarly troubled past.
