Cuaron thanked the film’s backer, Netflix, for having the courage to support “a black and white film about a domestic worker” that is not in English. He said the extent to which the film has been embraced “in an age where fear and anger are proposed to divide us means the world to me.” (With inputs from The Associated Press)
