Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire” showing April 7-11 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
Filmed across the West and narrated by Golden Globe and Emmy nominated actor David Oyelowo, “Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire” takes viewers on a journey with the top experts in the nation to better understand fire. The film follows the harrowing escape from Paradise, California as the town ignited from wind-driven embers and burned within a few hours of the fire’s start. It then continues to the even more recent fires of the last two years, when Oregon, California and Colorado suffered their worst wildfires in recorded history.
“Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire” includes the voices of climate experts, Indigenous people and fire survivors, and asks us to reimagine our relationship with wildfire as we prepare for an increasingly hotter future.
Former United States Forest Service Chief Michael Dombeck says of the documentary: “’Elemental’ is an outstanding film that deserves the widest possible viewing. In a visually-stunning manner, it distills what we’ve learned about wildland fire over the decades and provides a road-map for badly needed changes that will benefit thousands of people, particularly in fire prone communities.”
In the wake of destructive fires across the nation, “Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire” is an important look at discovering how we can all reimagine our relationship with wildfire, and keep our homes and communities safe. The solutions are now more timely and urgent than ever.
“Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre April 7-11. Showtimes will be Friday and Saturday, April 7 and 8 at 6:30 p.m.; and Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, April 9, 10 and 11 at 3:30 p.m.
