When Sara Dosa was reviewing media appearances that had been made by Maurice Krafft and Katia Krafft for her documentary, “Fire of Love,” she found many instances of the sexism that Katia had to endure and there was one that really drove her team absolutely insane. “It was a scientific discussion on French television where the host introduces Maurice saying he’s a world renowned volcanologist and adventurer, ‘…and his wife Katia.’ You could just see Katia’s jaw tightening and I know so many women have had that experience too,” she tells Gold Derby during our recent Meet the Experts: Film Documentary panel (watch the exclusive video interview above).
Even though Katia had seen and studied more erupting volcanoes than Maurice had, Maurice would often have to correct the people who would make these introductions. “He would say it’s actually a problem in our relationship because Katia is cheating on me with volcanoes.
