Mabel Lozano (Villaluenga de la Sagra, December 28, 1967)[2] is a Spanish writer, model, film director, film and television actress and activist in defense of women's rights. In her work she denounces the sexual exploitation of women through prostitution and trafficking. In 2021 she received the Goya Award for best documentary short film for Biografía del cadáver de una mujer.

Biography

Born in Villaluenga de la Sagra, Lozano moved to Madrid, where she came into contact with the world of fashion catwalks, living in Japan, Paris and Milan. Upon her return to Spain, she became popular when she started working on television.[3]

Professional career

She was the presenter of the TVE program Noche de Fiesta in 1999, together with Miguel Ángel Tobías, until she was replaced in 2000 by Juncal Rivero.

She also began presenting TVE's New Year's Eve specials, replacing Norma Duval in 1999 until 2003. She shared presenting duties with Ramón García, Juncal Rivero, María José Suárez, Nuria Roca, Andoni Ferreño and Juan y Medio.

In 2007 she took a turn in her career. After attending university to study filmmaking and completing a master's degree in social cinema and human rights at the University of Galway, she began a career as a documentary filmmaker for human rights, writing and directing her first feature documentary Voices against trafficking in women, shot in Romania, Moldova and Spain, in which she denounced the buying and selling of women and girls for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Voices against trafficking in women has been used for the training of law enforcement agencies and the Public Prosecutor's Office[where?].[4]

Since then, in addition to short films and spots, she has made other feature documentaries: 2009's La teoría del espiralismo, starring five Paralympic athletes; 2010's Las sabias de la tribu as a tribute to the generations of post-war women who fought for their rights; 2012's Madre, a documentary about motherhood in the 21st century.

In 2014 she released the short film Las mujeres que triunfan in which she talks about the success of women over 45.[5][6]

In 2015 she released the documentary Chicas nuevas 24 horas, about trafficking and sexual exploitation of women; which is a co-production between Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru and Spain[7] that was nominated for the Goya Award[8] and the Platino Ibero-American Film Awards.[4]

In 2018 she presented El proxeneta. Paso corto, mala leche the true story in first person of a trafficker of women through which she reviews the evolution of prostitution and trafficking in Spain since the 1980s.[9][10] She wrote a non-fiction novel with the same story that won the Rodolfo Walsh award.[11]

In 2021 she won the Goya Award for documentary short film for Biografía del cadáver de una mujer.[12][13] In May 2021 she presented the spot for the campaign "If you pay, you abuse" to dissuade young people from paying for sex. This was promoted by the Generalitat Valenciana in the framework of the Forum for the Abolition of Prostitution.[14]

She is a member of CIMA (Association of Women Filmmakers and Audiovisual Media).

Personal life

On April 19, 2020, she communicated on her Instagram account that she had undergone emergency surgery for breast cancer, diagnosed in March.[15]
