In one wild weekend, a Hispanic American family threatens
to burst at the seams. The college-aged son brings home
his "gringo" girlfriend; his flamboyant mother goes off in
mad pursuit of her straying husband; and long-suffering
Aunt Dolores sees the face of the Virgin in a tortilla—turning
their New Jersey home into a media circus.
As the Cruz
family struggles with old and new beliefs and conflicts, the endurance of family love is revealed to be the true miracle.
