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.
