They are a 100% volunteer-led non-profit, non-commercial organization in the country that works tirelessly to help save lives and keep all of us safe. The reason so many of us were able to safely see the eruption is because of them.

\\nQuestions I asked April During the Interview
\\n
\\n \\t* Before we jump into the documentary, it is part of the Art as Air project. Can explain a little bit about the Art as Air project?
\\n \\t* What inspired you to make the Fire & Iceland documentary about the Geldingadalur eruption that started on March 19th 2021?
\\n \\t* There is a guy in the documentary that went to the eruption 67 times. How many times did you go?
\\n \\t* Instead of basing the documentary around the volcano itself, there is a much wider focus on Icelandic people and the \\u201cvolcanic culture\\u201d. Different perspectives, like from members of the Icelandic Search & Rescue teams, geologists, artists, even Valur \\u2013 who is editor in Chief at the Reykjavik Grapevine, is in it, as well as local people. Why was it important to capture that culture here?
\\n \\t* What impact did the eruption have on you as a creator and person?
\\n \\t* Was there anything in the documentary that surprised as you looked back over footage or while you filmed the interviews?
\\n \\t* Do you have any favorite behind the scenes moments while shooting?
\\n \\t* What is your favorite Icelandic word or phrase?
