Sigrid Sophia Agatha de Torres von Giese (December 14, 1923 – April 27, 2009), known professionally as Paraluman, was a Filipino actress whose career spanned four decades. Dubbed as the Greta Garbo of the Philippines,[1] she is often cited as one of the greatest screen figures in the country.[2][3] She first appeared in the film Flores de Mayo (1940)[4] and rose to fame in the self-titled film opposite Fernando Poe Sr. She has since appeared in over 90 motion pictures including several foreign films such as Elephant Girl (1951) and Surrender - Hell! (1959).[5][6] She has received two FAMAS Awards and has been inducted at the Eastwood City Walk of Fame.[7][8][9]
