DESCRIPTION:Lightning ignites a devastating firestorm, forcing Bay Area 
 artist/activists Annie Sprinkle & Beth Stephens from their redwood forest 
 home. But the wildfire is just the beginning of their transformative 
 journey, as they craft a cinematic reckoning with the power of fire--with 
 its capacity to destroy and renew. Created through an ecosexual lens 
 (imagining the Earth as a lover), and narrated by a mythic white peacock, 
 their compelling story weaves a tale of resilience, queer love, and 
 environmental awakening. Instead of fighting fire, can we learn to live 
 with fire? This vibrant feature documents the couple’s adventures in the 
 wake of disaster, while also honoring the broader communities impacted by 
 ecological and social fires. Enlisting a collective of artists, witches, 
 Indigenous elders, and formerly incarcerated firefighters, Sprinkle & 
 Stephens examine the ways in which queers--and all humans--can support the 
 health of the Earth. The film sports an electric score by experimental 
 composer Guillermo Galindo, Lady Monster’s tassel-twirling burlesque, a 
 dangerous full-body fire stunt by the artist Cassils, a volcanic fire-play 
 massage with sex educator Barbara Carrellas, and an impassioned ritual by 
 performance-poet Guillermo Gómez-Peña. Shapeshifters suds on tap! $13\n\n
