“I will not experience the full freedom of women in a relationship”

Although it’s hard to believe she’s known outside of the theaters as she’s not a regular face on TV. Susan Sanchez (Valencia, 1955), for which Goya won for best actress for her role in the film. sunday sickness. Begona, her last character in the movie five wolvesis the story of a grandmother who had to see the generational differences in her new child, daughter Amaia, and experienced the gender difference firsthand. Sánchez, who assures himself that it was difficult to find a role during his career at 1.76 meters, received the Honor Award at the 19th Alicante Film Festival for his career on the big screen.

What does it mean for a translator to receive an award for his career?

Great, it makes me want to keep going. When I get an award, I feel like they’re telling me, “You’re on the right track, Susi, keep it up”. It’s an encouragement, a recognition that gives you the strength to keep working and to dig deep into something. And this in particular makes me realize that I have an appreciation of my entire career, a career behind me! Until now, I had the feeling that no one knew me because I wasn’t on TV. I thought no one knew me, but apparently someone does.

Let’s talk about the festival, how important is a festival like in Alicante for the culture of a city?

A people who do not pay attention to culture is an incompetent people without resources. Culture and education are the foundation of any show in later life. It is essential. You can’t say “I don’t agree with the culture”, it’s ridiculous to say that, you know?

I was going to reply by saying we’re going to be a big industrial site, but there’s a lot of culture there too.

Of course yes, of course yes! And on the street, in many places. Here, right now, there is culture. Culture is how we relate to each other, where we share things.

Premiering the role of Begoña. five wolves. What stands out in this movie?

It’s a no cheating movie. In the same scene with two characters, there are times when you go to one and times when you go to the other. This is because there is no judgment on the characters and they all express themselves quite freely, showing their lights and shadows. With that, the audience also feels identified and liberated because she says, “Oh, I’m not as bad as I thought. That tells me it’s okay to be good and bad.” It’s a story that calms people, even if they’re shocked. But it also calms him down because he sees human characters suffering, enjoying, living and dying. It is the life cycle, embodied quite faithfully, without cheats.

In a recent interview, he said the movie was unusual. Is the role of women often represented by many issues?

Sure, most of the time. I lived too. We have a somewhat stereotypical view of women in society.

“Unless women stop the tendency to glorify patriarchy, they will not be truly free”

Does the woman have to fit a mold while the man is allowed to go different ways?

Sure, but it has to do with the patriarchal society we live in. Even women perpetuate patriarchy because that’s how we educate our children. Unless a woman stops this tendency to glorify patriarchy, she will not be truly free. There are many feminist struggles, but until we women have a real awareness that we are the ones who put babies born into this education, then we’ll have a little song there.

In the characters of Dede Koldo and Baba Javi, the difference between generations can be understood. Are we men advanced enough?

Altogether, the characters represent this change. But what I’m telling you is not just a masculine thing, it’s a women’s thing as well. It is in the hands of both to advance in parallel, there is no privilege whatsoever. I think there is a clear difference between Koldo and Javi. Koldo is almost the generation of my family where the husband experiences as a normal thing to do nothing when he comes home, outside of work, in family involvement or at home, even if he is hardworking. In the case of Javi, you can see that he tries but falls prey to the mentality where he tells Amaia, “Of course you won’t work, you just gave birth, you’re still fragile.” which gives him the perfect excuse to leave the house and not get involved. It’s true that it fulfills a need, because that’s how freelancers work unfortunately (like the characters Javi and Amaia in the movie), but it’s also a very easy getaway. In the movie, the character Laia Costa (Amaia) gives Javi a hard time and tells him, “Hey, it’s not like that, I have to make do with it but it’s not the way it should be.”

Is it accepted that women should be mothers?

There is an unspoken law that all women are educated under. Less now, because women are now studying careers, jobs and other things, but in the past women could not work and were only trained to be wives and mothers. They succumbed to it, and it wasn’t that long ago. In this sense, I believe that I cannot experience complete liberation, complete agreement between a man and a woman in a couple relationship. For example, it’s also true that my nephews no longer even have anything to do with Javi’s generation. They are already on another plane, there is much more equality, much more balance between the two in housework. They both work and then everything in the world makes sense because they’re smart and they’re not trying to escape. That’s what it touches and that’s it, you have to accept it.

“Old people here are useless. The day I stop being an actress, they’re going to put me in the sack of all old women in Spain”

In a recent interview, she said that she lost some roles because she was too tall. Is micromachinism the hardest to spot and change?

Of course it’s very difficult. I find myself in macho thoughts. That’s how it is, I have to say to myself: “Oh my god, is he still at this point?”. It is an unconscious, they come automatically because everything that is so strongly and strongly embedded in our education. It is very difficult, you need to pay attention to catch these things.

He also stated that he received fewer articles due to his age. Do you think a woman suffers the age barrier more than a man?

No doubt, no doubt. On this occasion, they made a headline, “An old woman is an old woman.” I didn’t exactly say that, but I said something like this, when a man always looks interesting, attractive… Well, something always has an older man and it’s nice or attractive to a woman. Not an old woman. And that’s a theme of our culture. We are not like in the countries of the East where the elderly are cared for and respected, because they are wise people who can teach them what they do not know. We are useless people here, not here. I’m still fine because I’m working as an actress, but the day I stop working they’re going to put me in the sack of all the old women in Spain.

If I love a job and can fit it into dates, I’ll go straight, I don’t question anything, but now I can choose more than before.”

In contrast, does age give you the courage to suggest a change or reject something you don’t like?

Yes, I’m less embarrassed, he has years of experience. I have good intentions, so if I love a job and I can fit it into the dates, I go straight, I don’t question anything. If I have any difficulties or I cannot see myself in the character, I can choose more than before. But it is also true that I said “no” to certain things in my youth. For example, during the opening I did not see myself there, I did not see myself as that kind of player.

You mentioned that you have all the characters five wolves show your lights and shadows. Do you think anyone who watches the movie can see themselves reflected in any of the characters?

Yes, many people think. The movie has a lot of honesty in the sense that it shows you the characters as they are. They are not embellishing, they are not deceiving, they are not misrepresented, they are honest. It is true, of course, that the Basque people are famous for being like that. I actually have a lot of Basque friends, and that’s exactly why I love them, because they’re direct, they don’t go overboard. We are not used to people being so clear in our society. I am like this many times too, my brother used to say to me a long time ago: “You have a problem Susi, you say everything you think”. This seems like a problem.
