“From Prada to Nada*” is an upcoming American drama romantic comedy directed by Angel Gracia and produced by Gary Gilbert, Linda McDonough, Gigi Pritzker and Chris Ranta. The plot was conceived* from Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility.” The screen play was adapted by Luis Alfaro, Craig Fernandez and Fina Torres to be a Latina* version of the English novel.

    This film is about two sisters who found out after the death of their father that they were in fact not rich but poor, which forced them to move in with an alienated* aunt.

    Two spoiled* sisters — Nora, a law student, and Mary, a party girl — live with their father in a luxurious mansion in Beverly Hills. Mary refuses to admit she is of Mexican descent*. When dad suddenly passes away, their posh* lives are turned upside down. They discover they have been left penniless* and are forced to move into their aunt Aurelia’s modest but lively home in the Latino-centric Boyle Heights neighborhood of East Los Angeles. They are terrified to leave their world of privilege*. Neither Nora nor Mary speak Spanish or have ever had to take on actual responsibility. The girls gradually adapt to their new environment. Their BMW and Prius are traded for the public bus and a used car. As they embrace the culture that for so long they refused to accept, they both discover romance and the true meaning of family, and they learn that the life of Prada actually means nothing without love, family and community.(SD-Agencies)
