Pueblo Fronterizo No. 2: Guerra de quinceañeras (Quince Clash)

A quinceanera for the record books?
If Fabiola Garza had her way, her quinceanera would be as simple and as non-traditional as possible-just two airline tickets to New York City and her best friend in tow. Sadly, things hardly ever go Fabi's way.

¿Una fiesta de quinceañera inolvidable?
Si Fabiola Garza pudiera, su fiesta de quinceañera sería algo simple y poco convencional: dos boletos de avión a la ciudad de Nueva York para viajar en compañía de su mejor amiga. Desafortunadamente, las cosas casi nunca son como las quiere Fabiola.

In Dos Rios, Texas, life is all about borders -- and what happens when you cross the line. A fresh new series explores what it's like to grow up on the edge.
