Alfredo Castro is considered one of the best contemporary actors in Latin America. He plays a fanatical evangelical pastor and a transvestite with an exquisite gift for bedding.
Castro says that acting terrifies him, but that it is a terror that he finds pleasurable. He is founder and artistic director of the Memory Theater in his country, who jumped into cinema at 50. The last day he turned it on was September 4, 2022, when 62% of Chileans rejected the proposal to bury the Constitution inherited from the Pinochet dictatorship.
