The documentary El sueño del sueño (The Dream of the Dream), produced by Double Frame Studio, has had a successful premiere at the Teatro Cuyás in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, offering a unique perspective on the Carnival.

The audiovisual production, which delves into the backstage of the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival Queen Gala, was met with great enthusiasm by the public. The presentation event, held at the Teatro Cuyás, was marked by emotion and recognition for the collective effort that makes one of the city's most emblematic shows possible.
The film arrives at a significant moment, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the Queen's Gala. Its proposal goes beyond the stage's glamour, exploring the moments leading up to the performance: the nerves, rehearsals, emotions, and intensity of the decisive hours that precede the grand spectacle.

"48 hours of tension, tears, and love for Carnival, without script or filters."

The documentary, which initially began as an idea for a social media video, evolved into a work that highlights the truth behind the fantasy. It showcases the work of designers, candidates, technical teams, makeup artists, and families, focusing on the human dimension of an event that requires months of preparation for just a few hours on stage.
El sueño del sueño makes the backstage the protagonist, revealing the complexity of a mechanism where every detail is crucial. The production, which has the collaboration of Televisión Canaria, will soon be broadcast on the regional channel and will be available on the Canarias Play platform, with the support of entities such as Las Palmas de Gran Canaria European Capital of Culture and Multiópticas.
