El Guayota
The demon that dwelled inside the Teide
A cinematic exploration of the most powerful myth of the Canary Islands. Through the voices of historians, volcanologists and specialists in Guanche culture, we descend into the legend of Guayota — the demonic entity that, for the ancient inhabitants of Tenerife, dwelled in the depths of Mount Teide. A journey between science, mythology and the memory of a people.
