The actress premieres ‘El fred que crema’, one of Nazis in the Pyrenees nominated for the Gaudí
Privilege: she is the daughter of the exalted Eduard Fernandez. Own merit: it has already been measured with Penelope Cruz in the Goya for Best Actress and has won a Silver Shell for ‘A thief’s daughter’ (2019). There is no deification in her, there is a will to work and little filter when talking about her affairs. Greta Fernandez27 years old, premieres ‘El fred que crema’ (‘The cold that burns’), a film about Nazis in the Pyrenees, by newcomer Santi Trullenque.
She plays a mother, again. Is she going to understand her better than hers?
poor thing, my mother [la escritora Esmeralda Berbel]Because I’ll tell you no. When I interpret I don’t usually think about my things. Shot of intuition, of guts.
She says nice things about you. “My daughter looks good”, she left written in ‘Leave’.
I think it refers to my way of being, of being. We both take great care of each other. She recently told me: “Thank you, because you are a very happy person.”
It’s true?
I am always happy.
It is not the trend of his generation.
At some point sadness can cover me, but it is not something that is done in my house, for better or for worse. Now I have an acne breakout – I’ve taken off my contraceptives – and I’m more insecure, I’m embarrassed when they take pictures of me, but then I think: “It’s just acne! It’s okay.”
On screen he always seems to have a very tortured interior.
Completely! I have something deep and dense in my eyes, right?
“The psychologist made me see that I liked being cheerful”
Yes.
Let’s see, I’m cheerful and empathetic, but it’s not like nothing has happened to me in life. In adolescence I lived a hard experience, for love. But I learned a lot of things. I have always had the sensitive and deep part on the surface, so I have opted for practicality, to compensate. The psychologist made me see that I liked him better by being cheerful.
No one exploits that record.
TRUE? At least not here. In my first project for Hollywood, a horror movie called ‘Cuckoo’, with Hunter Schafer, the ‘Euphoria’ actress, I play the hotel receptionist and I think I’m quite amused.
Rolling outside still removes ballast. How long is the shadow of Eduard Fernández?
I’m not going to tell you that. That is for me.
You have to ‘kill’ the father.
I’ve already killed him, guys! Whoever has not heard is that he has not understood anything.
“Whoever does not know that I have already killed the father is that he has not understood anything”
Surely.
I have killed and saved my parents many times. As an actress, I always felt like she was doing my thing. I worked on the series ‘Olor de colònia’ and ‘La Riera’, I appeared in films and, suddenly, I starred in ‘Elisa and Marcela’.
Then she filmed ‘The daughter of a thief’, with him.
I adore my father. He is a great dad, he goes out of his way for me. And I don’t expect my career to continue without having him by my side. I’m happy to be able to call him and tell him that I’m embarrassed to do a ‘photocall’ because of acne, or a question about a scene, or ask my mother to help me find a play text. I appreciate how easy it is to talk to them about emotions.
“I am very ambitious, much more than I appear”
And how hard is it to forget whose eyes are?
I fully recognize myself in him. I see myself on the screen and sometimes I see him. We have the same taste, we look at the same things. But I also look so much like Mom. She is pretty, very strong, she has thrown herself doing massages and cooking classes, she went to university in her fifties.
What is Greta only?
You should ask others. I am very ambitious, much more than I appear. I really want to continue working abroad.
Is this too tight for you?
Yes. There aren’t that many movies for the number of people we are. How many have been made this year where there are women? Five? And my age? puff.
“When I was little I thought that working on this was normal. Halfway through I saw that it was an exception”
Well, his age is good.
I have people around me who want to dedicate themselves to this and don’t have a job, or that it has worked for them and no longer. Then there are the exceptions, like Anna Castillo, my best friend. Dedicating yourself to this, doing quality things, and earning money is very difficult. When I was little I thought it was normal. I realized that it was a dream in half, that my father was an oddity.

Do you like it when you see it?
In general, yes. And if I see any failure, I do not martyr myself. You have to catch negative emotions in time and work on them. If not, dedicate yourself to something else.
