La Soufrière (film)



La Soufrière - Warten auf eine unausweichliche Katastrophe is a 1977 documentary film in which German director Werner Herzog visits an island on which a volcano is about to erupt. The pretext of this film was provided when Herzog "heard about the impending volcanic eruption, that the island of Guadeloupe had been evacuated and that one peasant had refused to leave, [he] knew [he] wanted to go talk to him and find out what kind of relationship towards death he had" (Cronin).
