Throughout time, the legend of stones that listened to people’s sorrows and healed many, have traveled across Ladakh. ‘The Patient Stone’ is about the valley of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh – a film traveling between myth, legend, fact and fiction. Focusing on what people remember of contemporary history, the film explores places, history and culture. The people speak of their experience and the trauma of 1947, in their own words, without taking sides. The film brings out certain facts that at times shatter long-held myths about the land and people of Ladakh and Jammu & Kashmir.
