The Volcano Manifesto

Presented as a trilogy for the first time, Cauleen Smith’s The Volcano Manifesto brings together three recent films—My Caldera (2022), Mines to Caves (2023), and The Deep West Assembly (2024)—in a densely woven meditation on geological and cinematic time, on the wild abyss of volcanoes and the womb of mines and caves.” — MoMA Doc Fortnight
