In what year was the film Quinceañera, about a planned coming-of-age celebration, released?

The story behind the answer

The film Quinceañera was released in 2006.

The American independent drama was written and directed by Wash Westmoreland and Richard Glatzer. It follows Magdalena, a teenager whose pregnancy complicates preparations for her quinceañera and changes her relationship with her family.

The movie premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, where it won both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award. It later received a theatrical release in the United States during the same year.

This release date distinguishes the film from the 1987 Mexican telenovela also titled Quinceañera. The two works share a title connected to the celebration, but they are separate productions with different plots, casts, and creators.
