Which film festival awarded Quinceañera its Grand Jury Prize in the U.S. Dramatic Competition?

The Sundance Film Festival awarded Quinceañera its Grand Jury Prize in the U.S. Dramatic Competition.

Directed by Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland, the 2006 film premiered at Sundance and also won the Audience Award in the same competition. The recognition was a major early achievement for the independent production.

Sundance is held in Utah and is one of the best-known festivals for independent cinema in the United States. Its dramatic competition has introduced many filmmakers and films to international audiences.

The award is sometimes mixed up with later honors or with awards from other festivals. Quinceañera’s two Sundance competition prizes were the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award, both connected to its 2006 festival appearance.
