Carolina Unrein - Fatal: una crónica trans

Original title: "Fatal: una crónica trans" (Fatal: A trans chronicle) by Carolina Unrein.

"I, Carolina Unrein, me, the kid with the cute ass, me, the survivor of sexual abuse, me, the one with the eating disorder, the anxious, the lonely, me, the fucking, the faggot, the tranny, I, Carolina Unrein, declare myself fed up with this world of terror and horror, of this world without opportunities, fed up with this world of shit that takes one of us every ninety-six hours."

Carolina Unrein is a writer and actress who has made significant waves in both the literary and artistic realms. Hailing from Diamante, Entre Ríos, she ventured to Buenos Aires in pursuit of opportunities. Carolina is the author of three novels in the young adult genre: “Pendeja,” “Fatal,” and “El viaje real.” In “Fatal,” she candidly shares her personal experiences related to her transition with remarkable intimacy. Her writing resonates with young readers, providing them with a voice and companionship they may not have had before.

Carolina’s acting career has gained prominence, especially since her appearance in the television series “Buenos chicos” produced by Pol-Ka. In the show, she portrays the character “Eme,” a trans individual navigating the complexities of transition. Eme is the daughter of Commissioner Córdoba (played by Juan Palomino) and the sister of Yoni. The series delves into her struggles, including an attempted assault in the first episode. Additionally, Carolina plays a pregnant cisgender woman in a separate series on TV Pública.

Carolina’s journey toward self-acceptance and identity has been marked by challenges, fears, and exhaustion. Rejecting societal norms, she chose to redefine her corporeal existence beyond traditional masculinity. Her courage in undergoing gender-affirming surgery without her father’s full approval reflects an act of rebellion against societal expectations. As a trans woman, Carolina serves as a beacon and guide for other trans and gender-diverse adolescents. Her visibility in Argentine culture extends beyond her artistic endeavors, making her an influential figure. Carolina Unrein’s work and presence continue to inspire and empower others, bridging gaps and fostering understanding.
