DOORS OF TIME / LAS PUERTAS DEL TIEMPO by Rosa P.Almeida | Spain (2024)
Family memories intertwine with a historical event–the murders in March 1937 in Arucas, Canary Islands. This is the second piece of a trilogy about representation of memory, death and body. In 2024, a woman dialogues with her grandma through a film she made in 1997. They explore political tensions and their expression in private life. There is a heritage of silence that weighs on the island.

Pebbles Underground is focused on showcasing and promoting experimental, avant-garde, underground, and no-to-low budget projects by artist-humans from all over the world. Absurd, uncanny, witty, humorous, slow-video – all are welcomed, and loved.
Pebbles Underground is an independent project not funded by any government or corporation, and we intend to keep it that way. Main source of funding is personal donations from humans organizing the project, who are artists themselves, and the main drive of the project is formed by the energy and involvement of the organizers, and the public.
