About Die Steine
Sophie, fourteen years old, rides her bike to a remote area after school to read a book about the holocaust. She collides with Joseph, who is the same age, on her bike, and their paths become intertwined. A pile of paving stones next to a bunker triggers an idea: they want to dedicate a stone to each person murdered by the Nazis.
Directed by Jutta Sartory, Ingo Kratisch, Die Steine leans on a strong ensemble — Yana Laso Solari, Oliver Drake, Gerd David — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1985.
