A stunning tripartite portrait of the last stonecutter on the island of Menorca, a sandstone sculptor and of the scarred land they both carve.
Today is the closing day of the quarry owned by Toni, the last stonecutter left on the island of Menorca. Laetitia is a sculptor committed to preventing Toni’s quarry from being turned into a landfill. Together, they guide us through a journey to the heart of sandstone – eroded and reborn as a new being: the totem. What might be for some a scar on a landscape can also be seen as a totem to the beauty of scars; an imprint of human labour can also be an inspiration for human artistry.This film will screen as part of the programme Shorts: Sculpted Lands.
