The eleventh edition is themed 'Parar' (To Stop). It explores the question of what happens when one interrupts something that seemingly must go on forever. The event does not seek to advocate for stagnation, but rather to examine what sustains habits and inertia, and to ask what should continue, what should change, and what should begin anew.

On Monday 9 November at 19:00, the event opens with the discussion '¿Quién puede parar?'. Sociologist Raquel Martínez Buján will speak about care, work and personal time. Admission is free, but registration is required. On Tuesday 10 November at 19:00, the film 'Disturbios', which has won awards at festivals in Berlin and Vienna, amongst others, will be screened. Afterwards, anthropologist Manuel Delgado will lead a discussion on time, work, technology and social change. The screening is organised in collaboration with Tenique Cultural and the Muestra de Cine de Lanzarote.

On Thursday and Friday, 12 and 13 November, the programme features talks by Alessandra Sanguinetti, Silvana Trevale, Rafael Arocha, Anna Surinyach and Marina Speer. Tickets for the talks cost 20 euros. From Thursday to Saturday, from 9:00 to 13:00 each day, workshops will take place: one with Alessandra Sanguinetti and Jim Goldberg, and a practical course on colour correction and colour grading with colourist David Castañón. The Castañón course costs 70 euros, or 35 euros with a concession, and includes access to the talks on Thursday and Friday.

Saturday 14 November begins with a celebration of photography, running from 10:00 to 20:00. At 14:00, there will be a communal lunch with the speakers, the audience and the team, featuring wrinkled potatoes with mojo sauce. At 18:00, the Carretera Vieja photography collective will talk about their work in the Medianías in the south of Tenerife. This will be followed at 19:00 by 'Miradas Colectivas' and the closing of the event.
