Mary was so “90210″ She refuses to admit she is of Mexican origin. When the father dies suddenly, their lives upside-down chic. They discover that they were left penniless and are forced to move into their aunt’s former Aurelia (Adriana Barraza), a modest house, but lively Latino-centric Boyle Heights neighborhood of East LA.
