Story Behind the Stone is a short documentary film that follows the journey of a gemstone as is passes from hand to hand, all the way from a mine on the plains of South West Madagascar to finally reach the hand of one of Madagascar's leading ladies fighting for women's rights. The film takes a positive and constructive approach, looking into the impacts of the small scale gem trade on a personal level and the affect that capacity building has there within.
This film was produced by Lawson Gems ([ Ссылка ]) with the support of the Tiffany & Co. Foundation through the Gemstone and Sustainable Development Knowledge Hub ([ Ссылка ]), the University of Queensland's Sustainable Minerals Institute ([ Ссылка ]) and the University of Delaware's Minerals, Materials and Society Program
