Real women take chances, have flaws, embrace life…and have curves. In her feature film debut, America Ferrera stars as 18-year-old Ana, a first-generation Mexican-American from East L.A., who struggles between her ambition of attending college and her cultural traditions–as personified by Ana’s needy mother, who wants the girl to work at the family’s sewing factory.
