This presentation is part of the OC Speaker Series. Length 105 minutes
Wildfires are burning with increasing intensity around the world. Following the rhythms of the seasons, B.C. filmmakers Nova Ami and Velcrow Ripper's Incandescence is an immersive cinematic experience, weaving on-the-ground footage with extraordinary stories of survival and adaptation that transform our understanding of wildfire.
The film takes shape from the ancient patterns embodied in fire: destruction, aftermath and rebirth. From the flightpath of bees to an osprey’s aerial perspective, floating over the landscape: the Earth comes back.
Ami and Ripper talk with Indigenous elders, first responders, and local residents, getting their reaction to the ever-changing ecosystem.
