The cinema redefining the islands
Filmmaking in the Balearic Islands is experiencing one of its most exciting moments. This year, Balearic Talent brings together nine very different feature films: thrillers, documentaries, intimate portraits, historical memory, gastronomy, identity, and some of the most radical proposals ever made from the archipelago.
They all share one thing: their teams will be present at the screenings to introduce the films and engage with the audience.
Here is your essential guide so you don’t miss a thing.

The opening film of Atlàntida 2026.
