On September 19, 2021, after 50 years, a new volcano emerged on the island of La Palma. During the months of the eruption, a group of childhood friends shared audio messages via WhatsApp; creating a daily chronicle of wonder and tragedy, far from the media narrative. "An Inhabited Volcano" is a collective portrait of the friendship and the spirit of the people of a land, which from time to time, have to live through the hypnotic and devastating power of nature.

Guillem Martinez Oya Cinematismo An excellent ethnographic chronicle about the eruption of a volcano in La Palma island. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Nov 20, 2023 Full Review Alex Heeney Seventh Row David Pantaleón and Jose Victor Fuentes’s film An Inhabited Volcano documents the 2021 volcano eruption from La Palma, Canary Islands. The filmmakers use WhatsApp Voice messages as a kind of Greek Chorus to accompany images of the natural disaster. Jul 31, 2023 Full Review Jonathan Holland Screen International A thoughtful, poetic meditation on the impact of a recent volcanic eruption in Spain’s Canary Islands, An Inhabited Volcano teems with images of fear and awe but sends forth many other emotions besides.
