The 2006 film Quinceañera won the Grand Jury Prize at which major American film festival?

The 2006 film Quinceañera won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

Written and directed by Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland, the film follows Magdalena, a teenager in Los Angeles whose planned quinceañera is disrupted by family conflict and unexpected pregnancy. Emily Rios stars as Magdalena.

Quinceañera premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, where it received both the U.S. Dramatic Grand Jury Prize and the U.S. Dramatic Audience Award. Those honors brought the independent film substantial attention before its theatrical release.

The film is sometimes confused with the 1987 Mexican telenovela of the same title. They are separate productions: the film is an English-language American independent drama, while the telenovela is a Spanish-language television serial.
