-directed documentary that opened the festival and created a stampede of bidders in what is the first deal on the virtual ground here.
As Deadline reported yesterday, bidding began shortly after the film’s Thursday premiere screening. Netflix, Nat Geo, Paramount, Sony Pictures Classics, IFC, Universal and Amazon all were in the mix on this one. Submarine is brokering the deal. The film focuses on Katia and Maurice Krafft and their love of each other, and getting as close as possible to fiery volcanoes.

The film is produced by Shane Boris, Ina Fichman and Sara Dosa. The exec producers are Greg Boustead, Jessica Harrop, Josh Braun and Ben Braun. Ben Schwartz is co-exec producer.
