The Fire Within: A Requiem for Katia and Maurice Krafft
Director: Werner Herzog
Year: 2022
On 3 June 1991, a deadly cloud of hot gas and rock spewed out of Japan’s Mount Unzen. Among the 43 people consumed by it were scientist-filmmakers Maurice and Katia Krafft. They left behind over 200 hours of footage from their decades of work, which Herzog draws on for this stunning eulogy. From 1977’s La Soufrière through to 2016’s Into the Inferno, Herzog has long been fascinated by these violent natural events and his deeply personal voiceover is a fitting memorial to two people who gave their lives in the pursuit of both science and the pure cinematic image.

Cotswolds: Field and Folk
Director: Tea Smart
Year: 2026
Set in the rolling landscapes of the Cotswolds, a documentary exploring the lives, challenges, and traditions of the farmers who shape this iconic countryside. Through intimate conversations with a new generation and those who have worked the land for decades, the film reveals how farming families are navigating change - from shifting economics and environmental pressures to evolving ideas about land stewardship and community. Rooted in place and guided by the voices of those who live it every day, the documentary offers a rare, personal portrait of modern rural Britain and the people working to sustain both land and livelihood for the future.
