Os vulcanólogos casados Katia e Maurice Krafft morreram na erupção do Monte Unzen, em 1991, deixando 200 horas de filmagens. Esse material transformou-se num tributo visualmente deslumbrante que permite que as imagens vulcânicas falem por si.

Werner Herzog drew on material shot by Katia and Maurice Krafft for his documentary Into the Inferno. Here, he goes one further, crafting an entire film from the volcanologists’ footage. Eschewing conventional biography, Herzog fashions an awe-inspiring eulogy to the duo’s singular cinematic vision.
