The actress Paulina Garcia, recognized for her starring role in the acclaimed film Glory (2013) revealed the reason why he gradually began to move away from television and launched a harsh criticism against the industry. “It is a heteronormed, class and racist system,” he said.
García, 60, began his career in the 1980s on Channel 13, where he performed on Someone to live for and The puppets. In the latter she played Adriana Godán.
He also participated in The invitation (Channel 13), In the shadow of the angel, The Venegas (TVN) and Women’s prison, a television series that earned him an Altazor Award for National Arts. Later, far from conventional television, he ventured into Narcos (Netflix) and Kill the father (Movistar +).
In conversation with the podcast Kings of Drama, the actress recalled that in 1987 she starred in a strong controversy while recording The invitation on the former Catholic channel.
This, because he gave an interview to the newspaper The Mapocho Fort that the executives did not like. “The producer had no choice but to kick me out. They headlined ‘Paulina García accuses …’ and I came out pointing a finger. I remember the moment of the photo that had nothing to do with it. I went to hell, they did not let me enter the channel and I did not record again and it was over, “he recalled.
According to him, the production did not obtain the best results due to the minor importance of its launch … and that made him notice. “If there were 24 scenes, you recorded all 24 scenes. Crazy. The script was very interesting in that soap opera, but the launch was like a kermesse, obviously the competition was going to blow us away and they blamed the actors. They can’t put us to blame. The shit was left and they threw me out … I think I was saved“, said.
After that episode, getting a job became an increasingly difficult task. Furthermore, the papers that were offered to him were small. “It was to enter to say that dinner was served… I asked myself if I had the character to resist working that way (…) They didn’t need me ”, she assured.
And the criticism came: “It is a heteronormed, class and racist system. For a long time the system has been very fascist. I believe that it was even less fascist during the dictatorship than after ”.
For her, throughout the history of the national industry there has been an attempt to make plots that show the country, but they are “very heteronormed.” “Guys who threw mines and that was shown as something super choro. Men who talked to the penis while driving ”, he exemplified.
“Insulting rudeness towards women that surprises me that we have tolerated and normalized everything. We had naturalized that way of relating to men with women, “he added.
