‘Imiloa Astronomy Center will present the film “VolcanoScapes… Dancing with the Goddess” from Emmy Award-winning videographer Mick Kalber in the planetarium at 7 p.m. Friday, July 11.
This presentation is not in the full dome format but in letterbox on the dome.
The two-hour documentary takes a look into the lives of those who work, study, worship, take inspiration from or simply visit Kilauea, the world’s most active volcano.
The program explores what being near an active volcano means to a variety of people, whether it is those who perform hula depicting it, or others who study it, write about it, capture images of it in various forms, guide others to see its wonders up close, or create artwork inspired by Pele’s handiwork.
The film will take you behind the scenes of 30 years of the producer’s amazing volcanography: high fountaining eruptions, the devastation of Kalapana, the ash eruption deep inside Halema‘uma‘u crater, littoral explosions, lava flows, tubes, a variety of spectacular ocean entries and more.
All of this awe-inspiring beauty is portrayed through the eyes and voices of those who are most intimate with the goddess Pele.
Tickets for this event are $15.
