Fire of Love is poetic, philosophical and even a bit romantic. The director pulled the maximum out of the shared life story of a pair of volcanologists that ended decades ago, while also contributing a nice lyrical framing to that story. She finds both fatefulness and the couple’s life mission in their unusual and hazardous occupation, as well as in the unbreakable bond of their relationship. Theirs was a happy and fulfilling life journey. The shots of the couple from TV interviews are humorous, whereas those from the field while filming erupting volcanoes are interesting. And the shots in which they are standing mere metres from flowing lava are breathtaking. “As in love, there are mysteries. You fall hard for what you know. Harder, for what you don’t.” Fire of Love is a film that will stay with you.

Fascinating footage in an entertaining documentary about the relationship between two charismatic volcanologists who have experienced things none of us will. By the end, I cried more than with any other feature film in the last year. (56th KVIFF)

Magically melancholic mood, beautiful shots, extraordinary story of extraordinary people... A beautiful film in every aspect.

Fire of Love is a better romance, comedy, drama, disaster flick and thriller than most of the current cinematic fiction that tries to be classified as such. And yet it's "just" a documentary about two unique people with a unique story and even more unique archive of footage. The story of Katia and Maurice Krafft is bound to grab you by the heart and never let go. And I'm very curious to see how the identical material in Werner Herzog's take turns out in The Fire Within. This year it just came together. [KVIFF 2022]

An extraordinarily compelling documentary about two courageous people who were united not only by their love for each other, but also by their love for the scientific study of volcanic eruptions, which was their life and fateful mission – undoubtedly a beautiful and fascinating hobby, just a bit unpredictable and full of pitfalls. While the vast majority of people run from this destructive element, Katia and Maurice Krafft tried to get as close as possible, and thanks to them, we can witness some incredibly beautiful and breathtaking footage.

The documentary tells the story of two very nice French volcanologists who shared a passion for volcanoes and dedicated their lives to them. Thanks to their fearlessness, we are able to see unique and beautiful images of lava, volcanoes, eruptions... We also get to know Katia and Maurice and their relationship. I subconsciously expected the end that the story had, and I as a matter of fact felt satisfied. They spent their whole lives together doing what they loved, and that's how they passed.
