Girl in Progress
Girl in Progress is a 2012 American drama film directed by Patricia Riggen, written by Hiram Martinez, and starring Eva Mendes, Matthew Modine, Patricia Arquette, Eugenio Derbez, and introducing Cierra Ramirez in her film debut as Ansiedad Gutierrez.
The plot follows the 14-year-old Ansiedad, who lives with her busy mother Grace and ends up acting like a grown-up and going through different tasks on her personal list, believing she can speed up the maturing process and become independent more quickly.
The film received a limited release on May 11, 2012. It received the Favorite Movie Award at the 2012 ALMA Awards, which honors the accomplishments made by Hispanics in film, television, and music. Cierra Ramirez won the Favorite Movie Actress Supporting Role Award.
Grace Gutierrez is a single mom raising her teenage daughter Ansiedad. She is busy juggling work, bills, and her relationship with the married Dr. Harford. So, Ansiedad must take care of herself as well as her mother most of the time.
When Ansiedad's English teacher Ms. Armstrong inspires her with coming-of-age lessons, Ansiedad decides to rebel. She wants to grow up quickly, to become mature enough to move out. Ansiedad creates a list of must-do tasks to reach her big goal: run away to New York.
Ansiedad's first task is to remind everyone that she is a good girl – she signs up for the school's chess team and wins a match, and goes to a nursing home and regularly visits an old woman who Ansiedad names 'Maud'. Next, she must befriend the most popular girl in school, Valerie. After much humiliation and bribery, Ansiedad successfully completes this task, but must betray her best friend Tavita to make this happen, calling her fat and useless.
Tavita begins to cry from Ansiedad's harsh comments and runs off to her boyfriend Ferguson. Ansiedad witnesses him harshly breaking up with her, saying what they do in his basement will never mean they will be together. After Ferguson storms away, a crying Tavita tells Ansiedad that she was never there for her and that she hates her.
Ansiedad moves onto her next tasks, to have her first kiss and lose her virginity. For these, she targets one of the most popular boys in school, the supposed womanizer Trevor. Ansiedad confirms that he will be at a particular party that night, then asks him to take her virginity there. He agrees, and they kiss awkwardly.
