Fire of Love

Friday, August 5 until Wednesday, August 10, 2022Yukon Theatre

Miranda July narrates this lava-fuled documentary love story that features extraordinary archival footage of the world's volcanoes.

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.

Recommended for ages 12+ for mature themes.

"The visually entrancing volcano documentary “Fire of Love” chronicles a magnificent obsession and might even make that obsession your own." - Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
