In Know Your Stones we follow young climate activists while watching the steel industry and coal mines of the German Ruhr region. Here, life revolves around the stones beneath our feet. This dreamlike film focuses on the raw materials that brought humanity to where it is – and will bear testimony to our future in silence.
