Overview

• Elle published a conversation with Pedro interviewing Lux that foregrounds her lead role in Miss Carbón and the pair’s views on trans representation.
• Lux says it is “kind of degrading” when people assume trans actors connect to subjects solely through shared identity rather than individual humanity.
• She describes collaborating with director Agustina Macri to avoid fetishizing transness and to center the character’s heart and everyday life.
• The film, inspired by Carlita Rodríguez’s pioneering story, has played in Spanish theaters and is slated to stream on Netflix later this month.
• Pedro praises Lux’s influence, saying she empowers him during age-related self-doubt, and he reiterates his public advocacy for protecting trans people.
