Synopsis

Searching for stones in the vastness of the Moroccan desert may seem absurd. Unless these stones are celestial and have the power to change the lives of those who find them. That’s the story of Mohamed (a nomad), Abderrahmane (a scientist), and other bedouins. They all search for the same stone, but each one has his own reasons.
