Teen pregnancy has been in the news a lot lately, whether it's pop stars and their underage sisters or vice presidential candidates and their underage daughters. As usual, though, we have to turn to fiction to get a more accurate portrayal of how people actually live. A good place to start might be the film "Quinceañera," a 2006 Sundance Film Festival award winner about a 15-year-old girl who finds out just before her coming-of-age party that she's pregnant and is kicked out of her house by her parents. It screens tonight at the Coolidge, preceded by a cocktail reception with music from DJ JayCeeOh and followed by a Q&A with producer Anne Clements and actor Jason Wood. 21+ 9 p.m. Free with RSVP. Coolidge Corner Theatre, 290 Harvard St., Brookline. 617-734-2500. www.scion.com/route
