Living Stones

About This Movie

So, 'Living Stones' is this raw, character-driven drama that has a really unique atmosphere. The film dives into the psyche of a young woman who's clearly carrying heavy baggage, all while she’s at a rehabilitation centre. There’s this almost meditative quality to the horse therapy scenes; you can feel the tension slowly building as she starts to find some peace, but then things get complicated. The chemistry with her therapist is palpable, maybe a bit too palpable. It creates this tension that keeps you on edge. The pacing is deliberate, which might not be for everyone, but I think it serves the emotional weight of the story. It’s definitely a film that lingers with you, something about the practical effects and real settings gives it a grounded feel that enhances the narrative.
