FIRE OF LOVE at Museum of the Moving Image

This event is part of Sensing Change, a citywide Festival presented by Art Switch Foundation and Transparent Eyeball. This year’s edition explores how humans and non-humans perceive and participate in change – exploring ecological systems and geological shifts to embodied knowledge and cultural transformation.

Drawing from process philosophy and resilience thinking, Sensing Change invites new ways of knowing - beyond screens and data sets, through collaboration, intuition, attention, and care.

Fire of Love (2022)

Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature Film

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.
