Belén Rueda is currently one of the most important figures in Spanish cinema and the star of such well known movies as Mar Adentro (for which she won a Goya in the best actress category in 2004) and El Orfanato. She demonstrated a desire to support the José Carreras Foundation when she accompanied the tenor on a hospital visit. In June 2008, Belén Rueda and Josep Carreras devoted a morning to show their support to the children suffering from leukaemia in the Infantil Niño Jesus Hospital in Madrid. Belén showed a loving and caring tone with the children who would also know her from the popular TV series Los Serrano.
