In this research we will approach the audiovisual media as a powerful tool, capable of reaching almost any corner of the planet in a matter of seconds. Thanks to this ubiquity, the social and cultural power they have is undeniable, and they can contribute to a great extend to developing, disseminating and fixing identity narratives. Translation acts in these cases by multiplying the expansive effect of its effectiveness in bringing such discourses to other societies in other languages. We will be interested in deepening our understanding of how intersectional identities are presented in the media, especially those identities crossed by different axes of power, which limit their visibility and marginalize their subjects. We will adopt an intersectional methodology from the field of cultural studies and, from this theoretical perspective, we shall address the intersection between sexuality and functional diversity in the Netflix series Special. The study will determine whether the rewritings into Spanish in dubbing and subtitling have been based on simplistic representations of identity, anchored in outdated stereotypes, or if, on the contrary, multifocal discursive strategies have been employed that are capable of reflecting the complexity of these identities.
