"Fire of Love" Chicago Premiere Film Screening
Katia and Maurice Krafft loved two things — each other and volcanoes. Their legacy forever enriched our knowledge of the natural world. These French scientists devoted their lives to uncovering the mystery of volcanoes, chasing fire around the world and, in the process, capturing some of the most spectacular imagery of the earth ever recorded.
