Before XXY, Inés Efron starred in Glue, a drama about three teenagers set in a small town in a remote town in Argentina. In her XXY role, Efron's character is a 15-year-old intersex person trying to make a decision about their identity. Efron pointed out that "I liked the Alex character a lot and thought: I can do that. I felt a real connection."[2] For her performance, Efron won the award for Best Actress at the Cartagena Film Festival as well as three other awards. Efron is cited by Internet portal Ciudad.com.ar as "one of the most interesting arising actresses of Buenos Aires."[3] In 2008, she starred in The Headless Woman by Lucrecia Martel; and in 2009 she starred in another one of Lucía Puenzo‘s films, called The Fish Child. She also worked in theater with Lola Arias in the works Poses para dormir, Sueño con revólver, Temporariamente agotado and Demo of Ignacio Sánchez Mestre.
