Plot
Maurice and Katia Krafft dedicated their lives to exploring the world’s volcanoes. Their legacy consists of groundbreaking footage of eruptions and their aftermath, which they have composed into this stunning visual collage. Sabat MaterTrad. Werner Herzog presents a documentary about French volcanologist couple Katia and Maurice Krafft.
I noticed the classic Mount St
I had never heard of this couple, and suddenly they have two documentaries in a row. Herzog’s has the name and the pedigree, but the other film has the Oscar nomination. It’s fascinating to see them side by side and compare the two. Herzog uses footage shot almost exclusively by the couple.
Helens explosion footage
I’m sure there are other non-Kraft footage that complement the story. It’s very convincing that Herzog tells us at the beginning of the film that they are about to die on that Japanese mountain. It’s like introducing a dead body at the beginning of a murder mystery film. Both documentaries use eerie footage of the couple, but in this one they don’t have their voices.
He’s the only pope
It’s all Herzog narration, like in most of his films. I wanted to hear the couple’s voices, or at least their words, throughout the film. It’s more of a funeral tribute, and that might be the intention. I just feel more for the couple in the other film.
That’s the main difference
