"JUAN FOR ALL"

An animated comedy series geared to an adult audience, about a clash of cultures within a bilingual, dysfunctional family.   A microcosm of the ever-bubbling melting pot that is modern American society, the series aims to expand minds and educate by lampooning prejudicial isms (racism, sexism, etc.), stereotypes, ignorance and assumptions, as well as social, political and ethical issues with a heaping dose of irreverence.
