Majo Tonorio, aka "Filly Brown" is a young, raw hip-hop artist who spits rhymes from the heart. With a mother in prison and a father struggling to provide for his daughters, Majo knows that a record contract could be her family's ticket out. But when a record producer offers her a shot at stardom, she is suddenly faced with the prospect of losing who she is as an artist, as well as the friends who helped her reach the cusp of success. Fueled by a fierce hip-hop score, Filly Brown is propelled by an exceptional cast featuring Gina Rodriguez, Lou Diamond Phillips, Edward James Olmos and the legendary Jenni Rivera in her final on-screen performance.Bonus Content:Extended and Deleted Scenes Including Never Before Scene Footage of Jenni RiveraCommentaries by DirectorsMusic Commentary by Music Producer, Reza Safinia, and Gina Rodriguez]]> ## Product Details - **Genre:** Drama - **Format:** Color, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen - **Contributor:** Amir Delara, Edward James Olmos, Edward Rios, Gina Rodriguez, Jenni Rivera, Kerry Norton, Lou Diamond Phillips, Michael D.

It was very "meaty" in that it presentedrealistic situations that are relatable on different levels by men and women alike. That being said,the creators of "Filly Brown" should be lauded for the courage to cast a Latina in the lead role of a moviewhich explores universal themes. The characters are not archetypal. You may think you have them peggeduntil they turn around and surprise you (I won't give away the ending.) It was so well-directed that even side stories contained elements that resonate with larger audiences.For example, former gangbangers are not the only people who struggle with concealing their tattoos at work.Folks in all the colors of the rainbow reckon with that decision whether they work construction, join the military,enter the education or health care sectors and many points in between. "Filly Brown" has as much heart as the real-life actors who portrayed the characters. In the movie, the up andcoming rapper risks her artistic integrity and street cred to boost her appeal. In real life, singer Jenni Rivera riskedshedding her glamorous image to play the role of an inmate. "Filly Brown" was an uplifting movie about family, courageand hope. Well-worth watching. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Filly Brown's star rises! *by E***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 19, 2013* Filly Brown (Gina Rodriguez) is a quick-thinking freestyle rapper who enchants her Latino community with spot-on, poignant, hip-hop-based insights into their daily life. Initially, her friends at a local radio station help her build a fanbase, but she turns her back on them when her contract is picked up by producer Big Cee (Noel Gugliemi). Filly wants to gain stardom to help pay a lawyer to get her mom out of prison, and that's where the trouble begins. Before prison her mom wrote music under a male pseudonym, and gives Filly one of her original scores. Filly likes it and claims it as her own, only to be outed for plagiarizing the song from the unknown "male" author. Does she get out of trouble, does she lose her friends, is her career over? Ya gotta see the movie to find out, but it's worth the price--especially if you like rap, hip-hop, Edward James Olmos, Lou Diamond Phillips, and a great musical score! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mandated watching for Xicanos *by C***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 20, 2013* This is a hip and contemporary intrepetation of urban life for a strong, Xicana character like F.B. The role of the fallen mother played by iconic Jenni Rivera is down to earth and totally out of the barrio of any large US Xicano city. Should be mandated watching for all younger generation Xicanitos who must understand that being brown, being indigenous, being native, and being loyal to our culture puts us at philosophical and cultural war with the dominant powers-that-be who, having failed genocide of our continental peoples, have made it their passion to revile and de-humanize us. Congrats to Gina Rodriguez who defintely has the street cred and the brains to shatter some more glass ceilings. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/10555722-filly-brown-dvd](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/10555722-filly-brown-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
