CONVERSATORIO Y VISIONADO: TIEMPO, EXILIO Y MEMORIA

Aunt Gladys , Juan-Pedro Fabra Guemberena, 2014, 6:27 min

In the piece, Gladys sings a melancholy melody that touches. Through its Spanish origins, this song is part of a Uruguayan tradition that, like the tango, embraces feelings of longing and loss. Gladys' generation is the last to remember a country where many came from across the Atlantic to start a new life. She also belongs to a generation of women who lived through a military dictatorship and who at the same time formed the backbone of the family.
