Her independent work links her with several social causes, in which she has tried to preserve the memory and project an image of the women's struggle for gender equality. She has been awarded prizes such as the Ariel, the Silver Goddess, the Golden Colón of Huelva Spain, the Mayahuel in Guadalajara, Best Documentary at the First International Film and Video Festival in Puerto Rico and Best Documentary at the Festival of Cinema of the Canary Islands, Spain.
