In a post-apocalyptic world, successive wars, epidemics added to the scarcity of resources have resulted in a social collapse that transformed human beings into deformed stone figures trapped to their worst vices. When there was no more hope for humanity, suddenly, a flower blooms in the chaos and frees one of the “stone walkers" from imprisonment.
The height of egocentrism is reflected in the total isolation of bodies and senses, which can be reversed by a simple gesture of altruism. But are we really capable of practicing such a gesture, taken by aggressive and exacerbated viewpoints, contaminated by social networks?
"Stone Heart" does not need subtitles to synthesize an evil of our time anywhere in the world, fulfilling a universal connection. The plot takes place through actions, without a single word being necessary to understand the film.
