Synopsis
“In a cold world, although watches started to freeze, the sun came and went between blizzards and gusts that erased all bearings. In this world lived a fire. And in this fire, two lovers found a home.” Katia and Maurice. A sensitive geochemist and a fearless geologist. A charming volcanologist couple who spent their lives on the peaks of active volcanoes, erupting lava and emotions notwithstanding. Over time, they traded the study of “red” – benign – volcanoes for research into gray, explosive killers. How small is man when compared to the power of nature? And who do you live for when you could die at any moment? This touching documentary romance became an unexpected audience hit during the festival season this spring.
