The 12th edition of the Madrid-hosted Platino Awards, honoring the highest in Ibero-American film and television, saw major wins for the Oscar-winning Brazilian film I’m Still Here, as well as director Walter Salles and star Fernanda Torres (who were not in attendance). The night also featured three accolades for Netflix’s Colombian serialized adaptation of One Hundred Years of Solitude, which took home best actor and supporting actor categories, as well as best television series overall.
Other notable winners included Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door, which clinched the original score and cinematography categories.
The Platino Awards followed February’s Goya ceremony, which also saw wins for the aforementioned projects, in addition to other winners honored today, including El 47, La Infiltrada and Segundo Premio.

A standout from the evening was also Eva Longoria’s acceptance of the Platinum of Honor Award as an example of Latin excellence in Hollywood, which led to uproarious applause from the audience and a surprise appearance by colleague and friend Sofía Vergara.
“I was born in Texas, I’m Mexican American, I carry Spanish blood in my veins, specifically from Asturias,” the Only Murders in the Building and Desperate Housewives star said in her speech. “My soul is Mexican, I love the connection between Mexico and Spain; it’s a very special sisterhood that can be felt in every corner of this room. Since I began my career in Hollywood in ’98, I’ve had the dream of proudly representing my roots and honoring Hispanic women in particular.”
