Overview
Iceland is a land of natural disasters, where people live in close proximity with the strong forces of nature. On January 23rd 1973, a volcanic eruption began in Vestmannaeyjar. This was the first eruption that started in an inhabited area in Iceland. Around 5000 people fled from the island when a volcanic fissure opened in the east side of the town. Six months later, when the eruption ended, one third of the settlement had succumbed to lava and pumice. The documentary "My Unfamiliar Home: Accepting the Volcano" seeks to shed a light on the inner struggle of those who experienced the eruption and its consequences. Is that struggle truly over? Have these individuals come to terms with this event 40 years later?
