But as Karla Sofía Gascón took the stage for a speech about self-actualization, the internet flamed the Netflix movie for what many called an inauthentic portrayal of Mexican culture and trans experience. Jacques Audiard Fernanda Torres I’m Still Here “When Mexicans tell you that a movie… is portraying a Mexico full of stereotypes, ignorance, lack of respect and is profiting from one of the most serious humanitarian crises in the world,” wrote Mexican actor Mauricio Morales in an X statement. “Maybe… just maybe, believe Mexicans.” Another X user called the film’s Golden Globe wins a “joke,” adding that “it’s a racist, xenophobic mess with awful Mexican representation made by a French director who didn’t even bother to research our culture.”
