Fire of Love
This stunning documentary embraces the mythology around Maurice and Katia Krafft, the husband-and-wife scientists who died in the 1991 Mount Unzen disaster.
Sara Dosa tells the story of two French lovers, Katia and Maurice Krafft, who died in a volcanic explosion doing the very thing that brought them together: unravelling the mysteries of our planet, while simultaneously capturing the most explosive volcano imagery ever recorded.
Along the way, they changed our understanding of the natural world, and saved tens of thousands of lives.
Previously unseen hours of pristine 16-millimeter film and thousands of photographs reveal the birth of modern volcanology through an unlikely lens - the love of its two pioneers.
