classified 12A SPlease note: This was screened in Aug 2022
A vivid and heart-wrenching documentary from director Sara Dosa about adventure, love and enough close-ups on erupting volcanoes to leave you slack-jawed, terrified, and awe-inspired.
Katia and Maurice Krafft loved two things — volcanoes and each other. For two decades, the daring French volcanologist couple roamed the planet, chasing eruptions and documenting their discoveries. Ultimately, they left a legacy that forever enriched our knowledge of the natural world, venturing into the unknown, all for the sake of love.
Narrated by Miranda July and punctuated by an incredible trove of archival footage, Fire of Love packs a visual and emotional wallop. This story of primordial creation and destruction allows us to contemplate life lived at the edge of the abyss.
