It’s a system endowed with elements that goes beyond its concepts, because, when used, its speakers exchange, beyond the code, feelings and information. Therefore, the work has as general objective to analyze didactical possibilities in cinema for the linguistic variation teached in Spanish as foreign language and, as specifics, show its importance in the learning of foreign language, describe the dialectal zones of Spanish and suggest proposals of activities using the series, Soy Luna. As methodology, this research has qualitative approach theoretical proposes, analytical and descriptive based on deductive method. The theoretical framework presents itself, among others, Labov (2008) and Kenedy (2018), who contributed to the studies of sociolinguistics; Moreno Fernandez (2007) and Contreras Izquierdo (2017), who talked about Spanish variations, as also as Singh and Mathur (2010) and Ya Fang (2019) who proposed studies about cinema as didactical tool. As result, ensure that cinema it’s a didactical resource rich of possibilities: can be used complete audiovisual materials, or not, and from different sources as videos from digital platforms and social media that show the language in use. As conclusion, it’s a fact that, when using the cinema to teach variations, besides of turning the student in the protagonist of the class, it’s possible to open your vision to elements that go beyond code; the use of this resource approximates him of the real context of language and turns him able to learn about the others world.
