Itziar Ituño works on versatility rather than volume, and the catalogue keeps proving that the quieter choice was the correct one.
The essay
Our editors on the work, the patterns and the reason this body of work holds together.
Itziar Ituño appears in 14 films in the Nutevio catalogue, and none of them would work the same way without Itziar. Follow My Voice is the clearest case: a film rated 7.4 by our editors, where the performance carries weight the script only implies.
The recognisable elements are versatility, transformation, quiet performance. Watch two of these films back to back and the method separates from the material — the same instrument, tuned differently for thriller, action, crime. It is a style built on what is withheld as much as what is played.
Working with Mariano Hueter, Gabriel Beristain, Pablo Santidrián and others, Itziar Ituño helped set a standard other performers now audition against. Awards bodies have been slower than the work, which is usually the sign of a career built on choices rather than campaigns.

The defining work
#1
Emakumea
All the Moons (2020)
Performance score8.0
The performance the rest of the career is read through. Emakumea gives Itziar Ituño a structure to work against, and the film hands over its centre of gravity without hesitation.
View movie#2
Self
Money Heist: The Phenomenon (2020)
Performance score7.7
Money Heist: The Phenomenon asks for something the previous films did not, and gets it. Self is played without a single line of pleading for the audience's sympathy — which is exactly why it lands.
View movie#3
Katia
Follow My Voice (2025)
Performance score7.5
Follow My Voice asks for something the previous films did not, and gets it. Katia is played without a single line of pleading for the audience's sympathy — which is exactly why it lands.
View movie#4
Mari
Irati (2023)
Performance score7.0
Irati asks for something the previous films did not, and gets it. Mari is played without a single line of pleading for the audience's sympathy — which is exactly why it lands.

A guided path through the work, ordered so each film explains the next.
Best entry point
as Emakumea
Start here. All the Moons is the clearest statement of what Itziar Ituño does — accessible, 102 minutes, and rated 7.4 by our editors. No context required.
Our editors order this path by accessibility first and chronology second. You meet Itziar at the most legible performance, then move forward in time so each film reads as a response to the one before it rather than a repetition of it.
Money Heist: The Phenomenon (2020)
A deliberate change of key after All the Moons — same instrument, unfamiliar tuning, and the reason range gets mentioned.
Irati (2023)
A deliberate change of key after Money Heist: The Phenomenon — same instrument, unfamiliar tuning, and the reason range gets mentioned.
Follow My Voice (2025)
Keeps the drama register of Irati but asks for a colder reading of it.
The Redemption (2025)
Keeps the drama register of Follow My Voice but asks for a colder reading of it.

Categories of our own
Six editorial categories we apply to every performer we cover.
Most rewatchable
All the Moons
as Emakumea
The one that survives a fourth viewing. Nothing in the performance depends on surprise, which is why it keeps paying out.
Most emotional performance
Follow My Voice
as Katia
Grief played at conversational volume. The film never asks the audience to cry; the performance simply makes it difficult not to.
Most influential performance
Money Heist: The Phenomenon
as Self
You can hear this reading in other actors' auditions a decade later — the surest measure of influence there is.
Best ensemble performance
Nora
as Gas station employee
Work that makes everyone else in the frame better without ever pulling the camera towards itself.
Career defining performance
All the Moons
as Emakumea
If the career had to be argued in a single scene, our editors would pick one from this film and rest the case.
In their films' words
“You can build a whole film around a performer who knows when not to speak. Itziar Ituño has known it for a long time.”
Head to head

Ours alone
Recognitions handed out by this desk, on criteria no awards body uses.
Modern Classic Performer
Awarded
Defining performances delivered inside the last twenty-five years, in films already being taught rather than merely remembered.
Drama Legend
Awarded
10 catalogue titles in drama, each one a reference point for the films that followed.
Our desk
Best ending, best opening, best twist and the rest — categories we apply to everyone we cover.
Best ending
All the Moons
as Emakumea
The last five minutes reorganise everything before them, and hold up when you already know what's coming.
Best opening
All the Moons
as Emakumea
A first sequence that states the rules of the film without explaining a single one of them.
Most emotional
Follow My Voice
as Katia
The film where the technique steps aside and lets the feeling arrive undefended.
Best twist
Irati
as Mari
A reversal earned by information the film gave you and trusted you to misread.
Best visual achievement
Money Heist: The Phenomenon
as Self
Images that would survive with the sound switched off.
Best action sequence
The Gentleman
as Turón
Geography, stakes and consequence held in the same frame — spectacle you can follow.
Best dialogue
Follow My Voice
as Katia
Lines written to be spoken, staged so the pauses do half the work.
Most underrated film
The Gentleman
as Turón
The public vote sits below ours on this one, and the direction is the reason for the gap.
