Gordita Chronicles

After leaving the Dominican Republic to start a new life in Miami, the Castelli family try to fit in, make friends, and thrive in a place where the American Dream isn't as dreamy as they imagined.

Cucu finds herself in hot water for speaking Spanish; Víctor and Adela struggle to make good first impressions; Emilia struggles to keep up with the popular girls in school.

Cucu tries to kick-start puberty; Adela gets pulled over for not driving the American way; Emilia accidentally agrees to see a horror movie on opening night.

The Castellis experience a slew of American firsts: Cucu's first sleepover, Víctor's first American business dinner, and Emilia's first babysitting job.

The Castellis endure a tricky first Halloween when Cucu's Dominican grandmother arrives; Emilia makes a horrifying discovery in the boys' bathroom.

The Castellis engage in cutthroat competitions at school, work, home, and an American pool party.
