Filmed over the course of fifteen years, Deuses de pedra (Gods of Stone) is an intimate and poetic portrayal of a rural community located on the ancestral border between Galicia and Portugal. Through the eyes of Mariana, a young girl growing up amidst tales, legends, and local stories, the film explores the relationship between past and present, rootedness and change. Throughout this narrative, the magic of traditions intertwines with the dilemmas of modernity. At eighteen, Mariana faces a crucial decision, to leave her village as her siblings did before her, or to stay with her mother.
