La Mayordomía

Loquita Por Ti (Crazy For You)

Greta Diaz Moreau | US, Spain | 19

Marga en el DF

Gabriela Ortega | Mexico, US, Dominican Republic | 20

During the Aftermath of Selena Quintanilla's murder in 1995, Marga's life and future take an unexpected turn at 21 weeks pregnant during a surprise visit to Mexico City.

Passarinho

Two teenage girls try to meet their favorite soccer player, but the plan is threatened when one of them gets her first period.

Someday the night will come
