« Fire documents a burgeoning intimacy between two women, the wives of two
brothers, that culminates in their shared departure from the conjugal family
and husbands. While exploring the seemingly ordinary setting of married,
middle-class, conjugal family life, this film documents the characteristic
hypocrisies, tensions, and inadequacies from the viewpoint of these two
women. »
