When Sara Dosa was 6 years old, she had her heart broken. That’s when, in first-grade class in Berkeley, California, she learned the rainforest was being cut down.
That painful realization was part of what inspired Dosa to become a documentarian who has turned her sights on the climate crisis. She co-produced An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power, Al Gore’s 2017 follow-up to the film that launched the modern climate conversation. She went on to direct Fire of Love, an Academy Award-nominated 2022 documentary about French volcanologists Katia and Maurice Krafft, two scientists so consumed by their love for each other and for volcanoes that they died, together, inside one.
