Tenerife Film Commission

Canary Islands

Plenty of movies and commercials have been shot in the Canary Islands, and Tenerife has been constantly chosen as a filming location for its diverse and paradisiacal landscape. You may find a modern city near a beach, plenty of natural parks or you may spot colossal mountains from almost everywhere. The visual attraction of the island keeps capturing the attention of photographers, producers, artists and storytellers in general. Desert landscapes are a key location in Tenerife. 

The south of the island and Teide National Park are very popular locations to tell stories. Sky Rojo (Netflix) is about to be released soon this month and it shows a charming yellow Tenerife with a dry dusty landscape. In addition, Our Father (Volcano Films and Noodless Productions) brings to life a modern western with road movie conventions. La piel en llamas – Skin On Fire (Alamo Productions with collaboration of Festeam Comunicación y Eventos) shows us an abandoned miltary zone but also an iconic location of the island, Arico. Also ‘Ça ira’ the videoclip from the French ‘Vitaa & Slimane’ goes through a wide variety of deserted locations, chosen by Seven Islands Film.
