- She wants to be white. She wants to be black. She wants to be.
- Dos Veces Ana is the story of two Anas, two biracial women who live in two very different worlds that somehow, seem to run in parallel and overlap. Both Anas are Hispanic. The first Ana is trying to get over a stormy relationship with her lover Javier, a hip hop musician. She works as a cashier at a market on Calle 8, the main thoroughfare in Miamis Little Havana, with her best friends Felito, a bag boy, and Susie, another cashier. Anas workday is full of amusing encounters with customers from the neighborhood. But always present, in the back of her mind, is a dream. Ana wants to be an actress. The other Ana is an up and coming actress, on the verge of stardom arising from her role as an African slave in a popular Spanish language soap opera. Ana dreams that she's on her way to success in Hollywood, but all she's done is play the servants in tacky soap operas. When Ana goes to a casting for an independent film with Hollywood financing, the director falls for her and offers her the lead role, a cashier who works at a market on Calle 8. Ana realizes that her moment has finally arrived, and decides that shell stop at nothing to guarantee her path to success. The two Anas live in parallel realities, or perhaps they are the other Anas illusion. Fantasy and deception mix up in this Drama/Comedy that bends racial boundaries and stereotypes, where "Perception is not Reality".
