Out of the Fire (2013)
A heartfelt documentary about a side of pottery you never see
Having grown up in the artist community I could easily relate to the raw joy and pain the main character shows us on his journey for the big kiln fire. The pacing is wonderful - allowing you to absorb emotions and feel like you're there with the crew. It offers wonderful insight of an art form most people don't know about. Lovely, heartfelt and compelling. I hope everyone watches this while drinking out of the mug they got at the last craft fair - to truly appreciate the work that went into it. Nicely shot and cozy setting - makes you want to visit the pottery shop. Characters are endearing and passionate about their work. Gives you a new perspective and appreciation for the work that goes into art that we sometimes see as a mug or bowl or dish. There are thoughtful wonderful people behind each and every piece of pottery in our homes.
