Gearing folks up for Burning Man, DOC NITE PRESENTS

"FIREFALL: Road to Burning Man"

(2004, 88min) Dir. Alessandro Gentile
A feature-length documentary chronicling the creation of a
large-scale sculpture from its concept to its unveiling. Berkeley
artist Kiki Pettit is chosen to create the keyhole project at Burning
Man 2002, as the film follows her on a journey of endless
challenges...from aesthetics to logistics, and even the mundane. All
of these challenges must be overcome if she hopes to realize her
surreal vision of a 14-ft copper fountain that flows fire on water.
