Where is broken embraces set

My yurt was a sumptuous structure lined in pink silk with a marble floor, and a wetroom and kitchen just outside. I made a pot of coffee and an omelette with organic eggs from the finca's chickens and huge spring onions from the garden, before having a swim in the solar-heated pool. This mini paradise was created by Britons Tila and Michelle Braddock, who live here with their four children. Manrique would be proud, but at the moment Finca de Arrieta is the largest sustainable energy project on the island.

We were having dinner right by the sea on the terrace of the Amanecer restaurant in Arrieta, the village just down the road.

As we devoured sizzling prawns, Tila pointed out a romantic-looking little cottage a couple of doors away, which they also rent out. We put a solar panel on the roof there too," said Tila, dipping fried goats' cheese into the mojo dips which are traditional throughout the Canaries.

The next morning, Tila whisked me off on a tour of the north of the island. We drove high into the hills, through lava fields covered in lichen in soft shades of gold, green and cream. On our left was the Monte Corona volcano, and standing alone on the hillside below it was La Torrecilla, the large house that is used as a clinic in Broken Embraces. A lava tube runs from the volcano to the sea, billowing out to form caves along the way.

In one of these, Manrique created Los Jameos del Agua, a massive grotto that contains a recently restored auditorium, where Broken Embraces had its first screening.

Hidden in a lush valley and surrounded by palm trees, it is one of the prettiest villages on the island. We stopped for lunch at La Frontera, a popular family-friendly restaurant with views down the valley, and ate chunks of aubergine with palm honey, and tender lamb chops. Later on, Tila dropped me off at El Aljibe in the remote village of Los Valles, where I was going to spend my last night. From the outside, it looked like a traditional Canarian farmhouse, albeit a rather chic one.

Inside, however, a staircase led down through an archway into an enormous stone space with a vaulted ceiling and mezzanine sleeping area. Originally the underground water cistern for the farm, El Aljibe is now stylishly decorated with paintings and sculptures by renowned local artists, all friends of the owner, who was also close to Manrique and worked with him on some of his projects back in the 70s.

Arrieta is an eco-retreat, where the yurts and other properties are run on solar and wind energy, and holistic therapies, spa treatment and art courses are on offer. This eccentric-looking rose-coloured finca in the picturesque town of Yaiza has 19 comfortable rooms.

Although it's just a short 10km drive from the beaches, the inland location gives the hotel a peaceful feel, and there are bicycles to hire. The hotel has two restaurants - a bodega with an impressive selection of Spanish wines, and a more formal restaurant.

He was then still known by his real name, Mateo Blanco, and directing his last movie. Diego : When you were waiting at the roundabout, for a car to pass on your left, Lena and you kissed. Mateo Blanco : We kissed? I don't remember that. Diego : It's a normal kiss, the kind couples give each other out of habit. Mateo Blanco : The last kiss. Diego : Yes. Lena didn't die in your arms, like you'd dreamed, but the last sensation she took from this world was your mouth.
