#MovementMondays Daniela Vega is a Chilean actress and singer. This breakout star of the award winning Chilean film A Fantastic Woman (Una Mujer Fantastica) made history last night by becoming the first openly transgender person to ever present at the Academy Awards. Taking the stage, Vega said, “Thank you so much for this moment,” Vega said, “I want to invite you to open your hearts and your feelings to feel the reality, to feel love. Can you feel it?” A Fantastic Woman is a film about a trans woman mourning the death of her partner. Vega makes it clear to The Guardian, along with its emotional charge, A Fantastic Woman also has a strong political agenda with regard to trans identity. “The film wants you to question where you stand in society.” Before A Fantastic Woman, Vega had appeared in plays, various music videos, and in the Chilean feature, La Visita (The Guest) about a transwoman at her father’s wake. But it wasn’t her initial experiences that led to her being cast. Sebastian Lelio and co-writer Gonzalo Maza had been working on their script but realized they didn’t know any trans people in Chile. They needed a consultant and someone suggested Vega – shortly after she was offered the lead role. In lots of ways, her character Marina, became her.  As for the Oscars, and whether the Academy is ready for a trans drama starring a trans actress, “the world is ready, not just the Academy.” Last night, A Fantastic Woman became the first Chilean film to win for Best Foreign Language at the Academy Awards. Vega has multiple projects in store for the future – including a contract to write a book, a one-woman stage show, and other projects in TV and film. I cannot wait to see what is next for this talented beauty!
