🎬Adriana Barraza

Adriana Barraza González (born 5 March 1956) is a Mexican actress, acting teacher, and director.

In 2006, she collaborated with Iñárritu again in Babel, for which she received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Barraza is known in Mexico as Master Barraza from her partnership with Mexican director Sergio Jiménez, known as El Profe.
