Deaf actress and writer Miriam Garlo on disability imagery: 'an icon of overcoming is completely unreal'
El Mundo interviews Deaf actress and writer Miriam Garlo, who made history last winter as the first person with a disability to win the Goya for best new actress for her lead role in the film Sorda. She criticizes the portrayal of disability as an inspirational icon of overcoming, calling it an unrealistic exercise in admiration.
