En vela

What keeps us awake at night? Ana Penyas seeks to answer this question. The author turns her attentive, critical, and revealing gaze toward insomnia, the shared anguish that has become one of the great ills of our time. "En vela" (Awake) is a choral story that unfolds over six nights and a day. The sleepless hours reveal situations of job insecurity, uncertainty, and social inequalities that often become phantoms. Furthermore, the inability to disconnect from screens and the use of anti-anxiety medication as a means of coping leave a deep mark on mental health.
