La actriz Miriam Garlo, Premio Goya a mejor actriz revelación de 2026 por su papel protagonista en Sorda, debuta en ficción con un viaje autobiográfico desde la oscuridad de la depresión hacia la luz.
Mi nombre es Sakia.
Nacà oyente, pero a los siete años perdà la audición.
A esa edad ya habÃa asimilado bien el lenguaje.
Mi nombre es Sakia.
Nacà oyente, pero a los siete años perdà la audición.
A esa edad ya habÃa asimilado bien el lenguaje.
TenÃa buena memoria y era experta en disimular.
Me eduqué como oyente y entre oyentes.
Era una persona normal, aunque algo despistada.
Solo debÃa prestar más atención, o eso me dijeron.
Nadie pronunció las palabras «sorda ni «sordera .
Y yo solo me centré en sobrevivir.
Esta es mi historia. Volar con un ala rota es una novela bella llena de sutileza y dolor, de confusión y búsqueda, pero también de empatÃa y esperanza. Una historia que nos invita a valorar al otro desde el respeto, a comunicarnos sin lÃmites, sin miedo y sin vergüenza porque ningún ser humano es invisible. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Actress Miriam Garlo, winner of the Goya Award for Best Breakout Actress in 2026 for her leading role in Sorda, makes her debut in fiction with an autobiographical journey from the darkness of depression toward the light.
My name is Sakia.
I was born hearing, but at age seven I lost my hearing.
By that age, I had already mastered language.
I had a good memory and was an expert at hiding it.
I was raised as a hearing person and among hearing people.
I was a normal person, though a bit absent-minded.
I just had to pay more attention--or so I was told.
No one ever said the words deaf or deafness.
And I just focused on surviving.
This is my story. Flying with a broken wing is a beautiful novel full of subtlety and pain, of confusion and searching, but also of empathy and hope. A story that invites us to value others with respect, to communicate without limits, without fear and without shame because no human being is invisible.
