Out Takes 2012 - Mosquita y Mari
Mosquita y Mari is a coming of age story that focuses on a tender friendship between two young Chicanas, Yolanda and Mari, growing up in immigrant families in Los Angeles who have only known loyalty to one thing: family. Yolanda, an only child, is a studious 15-year-old delivering straight A`s and the hope of the American Dream. She has friends in school, but isn`t terribly excited by them. She goes to their parties as a sort of teen default, but she always makes it back home in time, to her strict (but loving) parents’ delight. Mari, the elder sister, is aloof and pouty – the picture of teenage cool. She shares economic responsibilities with her undocumented mother who scrambles to make ends meet. Yolanda drifts happily enough through her existence until the intriguing new neighbour moves in across the street who also happens to be in the same class. One day Yolanda over-enthusiastically offers to share her textbook. Mari calls her an annoying fly – a mosquita. What begins as a friendly deal to help Mari succeed in school soon takes a life of its own. The girls establish their own hangout in an abandoned garage, they study and talk about life for hours on end. They hang out in each other’s houses, walk to school together, and basically, in all the ways that really matter, live together.
