Leticia Dolera, feminism propels your career, but cools your marriage

Although until now he had preferred not to make statements, the actress Aina Clotet has decided to break his silence in the face of the “surprising” statements of Leticia Dolera, the director of the series indulge in this was to participate and to play a role.

After being accused of fire her for being pregnant, the young catalonian director defended himself by arguing that “the role reserved for Clotet was that of a woman who takes the pill to not get pregnant”, and that he had to participate in several sex scenes “that didn’t fit with a person that, at the start of the recording of the series, she would be pregnant from four to six months”.

a Few reasons to refuse now Clotet. In a statement on Twitter, the actress says at the time you start to roll it would have “a little more than three and a half months (not four or six as it has been published)”. That’s why, he adds, “I realized that, with planning adapted, could shoot most of the scenes before my pregnancy was perceptible”. It also specifies, “if she was a time in my pregnancy was visible, and were scenes of outstanding roll, I understood that you could turn to any of the techniques that we use routinely in these circumstances, how to adapt the costumes, set planes of the camera, to suggest the character, who is already a mother of two girls, do not need to have a belly completely flat, use double bare spot… And so what I proposed,” he says.

The actress understood that, “despite the fact that this adaptation was a effort for the whole team”, would not be a problem taking into account that it was “a series markedly feminist and that raises the difficulty of being a woman and mother in this society”, and that, therefore, “consider all options” in order not to exclude it, “just be pregnant”.

Dolera, which has become in recent times one of the main familiar faces of the feminist struggle, has denied in an interview with The Vanguard that the cause of have lacked Clotet is due to that the actress was pregnant, as he was offered an alternative role which it “rejected”. The also actress and director ensures, however, that he admires the Catalan “because it is good in both the records comedians as in the dramatic”.

on the contrary, He says that two days after to let her know that he was in a state, the director informed her by telephone that he could not have her by “a problem with the insurance policy”, “establishing a cost most high to cover any problems arising out of pregnancy” and that, in addition, “looked complicated to change the shooting plan”.

in Spite of the alternatives that offers the actress, “Leticia (Dolera) still do not see feasible to hide my pregnancy in the last phase of the recording, arguing that the character has scenes of bed.”

Aware, ” continues He, “of that part of the problem was a financial issue, I put arrangement my wages to cover any additional costs that my pregnancy could be to the production”. Something that was not accepted by part of the production.

Sense of helplessness

The actress does not deny that they were offered another role in the series, as stated Dolera, but they rejected him for “being a minor character as it has been given to understand”. Explains, by contrast, has adopted this decision “by the great feeling of helplessness that I had felt during the whole process”.

a Few weeks before the start of the shooting, He and his representative met with Movistar+, a platform that has commissioned the project, they moved that “did not have any knowledge of the existing problem with the insurance policy for pregnant women, or any of the economic problems and planning given by the production company” to take it off of the series. And he added that, “if known, would dump all his will to try to avoid that this situation happen.”

He concludes the statement by saying: “I Am fully aware of the enormous pressure that leads to direct and produce a project like this. But, on the other hand, I think that it is necessary to show the other side of the coin, the pressure that you have the woman who is pregnant and has to decide whether to hide her pregnancy to keep the job or explains it to promote the organization of the same, risking to lose it. I opted to put it out of loyalty to the project and I lost an important job for me, as well as other work that I refused to be a part of it”.

“I Believe, fervently, that no woman should be seen in the need to hide something as well to protect your career and feel that it is a commitment of all to fight for a more just and equitable society, that it does not reduce the opportunities of women in times as crucial as a pregnancy or maternity”.
