The trailer isn’t really exciting, but I’d still give the film a try, if only because it’s starring Michael Shannon. And you?
The release date of Salt and Fire is set to April 4, 2017 (on VOD). :)

The trailer may look enticing, and the cast can boast Michael Shannon and Gael Garcia Bernal, but early reviews of the film aren’t that flattering… So don’t get your hopes up too high for this one.
The film still has to get an official U.S. release date, but it will hit German theaters on November 17, 2016. :)

Sometimes redemption is out of reach.
To better understand why there’s volcano on that poster, here’s a second plot synopsis with more details:
“A scientist blames the head of a large company for an ecological disaster in South America. But when a volcano begins to show signs of erupting, they must unite to avoid a disaster.
Anyway, who do you prefer: Michael Shannon or Gael Garcia Bernal? Why?
The film has yet to get an official US release date, but it will open in German theaters on November 17, 2016.
Update – A new plot synopsis:
Plot: “Just thirty hours ago, Professor Laura Sommerfeld (Veronica Ferres) and her scientist colleagues (Gael Garcial Bernal and Volker Michalowski) were en route to South America to survey the volcanic Diablo Blanco disaster zone on behalf of the United Nations. Now, she has been detained, handcuffed, and secreted away to an unknown location under armed guard and the unblinking eye of a pillaging corporate imperialist (Michael Shannon) and a terrifyingly withdrawn, wheelchair-bound, machine gun-toting nihilist (noted cosmologist and theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss in his acting debut). Soon, Laura will find herself quite literally at the center of the ecological and political fallout of Diablo Blanco: abandoned and forced to survive with limited provisions in a mysterious and rapidly expanding man-made desert that could one day overrun the world.” :)
