Hey Everyone – Lascaux Micro-Theatre is pleased to bring you: FIRE OF LOVE, 2022, Canada/US, 97 min, PG (English and French with English Subtitles)
Check out the trailer here: https://youtu.be/kz95Xjd3l00
Katia and Maurice Krafft loved two things — each other and volcanoes. For two decades, the daring French volcanologist couple roamed the planet, chasing eruptions and documenting their discoveries. Ultimately, they lost their lives in a 1991 volcanic explosion, leaving a legacy that forever enriched our knowledge of the natural world.
Director Sara Dosa and the filmmaking team fashion a lyrical celebration of the intrepid scientists’ spirit of adventure, drawing from the Kraffts’ spectacular archive. FIRE OF LOVE tells a story of primordial creation and destruction, following two bold explorers as they venture into the unknown, all for the sake of love.
FIRE OF LOVE currently holds a 99% Fresh Critical Rating on RottenTomatoes.com!
“A poem of matrimony and magma.” – Matt Zoller Seitz, RogerEbert.com
“There’s a reason that volcanoes have, throughout human history, been worshiped and placated like gods. Maurice and Katia Krafft represent a secular, scientific variation on that old-time religion.” – A.O. Scott, New York Times
“A wholly satisfying, overwhelming documentary, as disarming as it is explosive. To know the Kraffts is to share their lava affair, and sharing their journey brings you face-to-face with alarming majesties.” – William Bibbiani, TheWrap
