This Cinderella story blends the emotional resonance of Under the Same Moon with the transformational charm of My Fair Lady. At its center is Xochitl, a Mexican-American street fruit vendor whose life takes an unexpected turn when a powerful film director makes her the subject of a daring bet with his career rival. Xochitl is thrust into a world she perceives as hostile. What follows is a clash of cultures--paving the way for new friendships, surprising rivalries, and life-altering consequences.

Lily W @lilywu 1d A feel-good movie that's more thoughtful than you'd expect! See more A B @MovieMan0 2d We watch movies .. yes that is what we do and we look for flaws & yes that is what we do too. some minor issues (almost all the movies has some) this movie was made in 2-3 weeks & had a small budget , so all that said & considered, Acting was good "Anthony Preston did a good job delivering it"& other actors were believable too. So yeah, worth watching it. if you have political views and are upset at Mexicans, Don't ! See more Via D @Viadelm 2d Good one. thanks for your efforts See more Connor A @Comans 2d Nice wholesome movie. loved it & we will watch it again! thank you all for your efforts.
