- Great movie recommendation (especially if you’re young and Asian)!
- "Mosquita y Mari" is a coming of age story that focuses on the friendship between 2 Mexican girls growing up in LA. The movie explores how their developing feelings for one another affect their relationships with their immigrant families and friends. I highly recommend this movie to everyone!
