Spanish film "Emilia Perez" wins Best European Film at Goya Awards, amid lead actress's past controversy.

The Spanish narco-musical "Emilia Perez," which tells the story of a Mexican drug cartel boss transitioning to life as a woman, won the Best European Film award at Spain's Goya Awards. Despite receiving 13 Oscar nominations and multiple awards, including four Golden Globes, the film faced a scandal over lead actress Karla Sofia Gascon's past social media posts denigrating Islam, China, and George Floyd. Gascon has since apologized and distanced herself from the film's publicity.
