Civil servant Panos Dologlou hasn’t been home for two days and his 68-year-old mother Haroula is worried sick. When a camera crew turns up on the doorstep of the home she also shares with her wheelchair-using older son Lefteris she assumes they’re news reporters and immediately invites them in. They are, in fact, a documentary crew, on the trail of Panos because he has been accused of fraud. Haroula sets out with her other, disabled son and a Greek-African taxi driver to bring him back home where he belongs. Even if this means discovering who her son really is.
“Black Stone is a fictional story about real life. A window onto the modern Greek tragedy. It is the story of a Greek family that reflects upon a whole society, a whole country in disintegration.” (Spiros Jacovides)
