Following Goodbye Gauley Mountain: An Ecosexual Love Story (2014) and Water Makes Us Wet: An Ecosexual Adventure (2019), Bay Area icons and longtime partners Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens present Playing with Fire: An Ecosexual Emergency, the third chapter in their queer environmental documentary explorations.
With the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex fires in Northern California serving as the catalyst for their journeys in Playing with Fire, the artist/activist duo reckon with the power of fire — its capacity to heal and its potential to destroy. As California (and the world) is set ablaze as a result of global warming, Annie and Beth enlist a collection of artists, Indigenous elders, witches, formerly incarcerated firefighters, and educators to examine the ways in which queers (and other humans) can support the health of the earth.
