A Million to Juan (1994)

In this heartwarming romantic comedy, we follow the journey of an earnest Mexican immigrant, scrapping a living by selling oranges on bustling street corners, his life shadowed by the lack of a green card. One extraordinary day, a sleek limousine graces his humble corner, and he's handed a check for a staggering $1,000,000, along with a peculiar condition: he must return the check in 30 days. Seizing this golden opportunity, he cleverly uses the check as leverage to secure credit, transforming his life overnight. Amidst this whirlwind of change, he also finds himself drawing the attention of a charming woman, trapped in a stagnant relationship with a domineering businessman. As the 30-day deadline looms, his life spirals into chaos. The materialistic world he built on borrowed credit begins to crumble - his possessions repossessed, his home threatened with eviction, and deportation to Mexico imminent. A Million to Juan is a poignant exploration of the immigrant dream, the fleeting nature of material wealth, and the timeless value of authenticity and love.
