Picapedrers is a short documentary film produced by Sergi Carulla and Oscar Blasco and directed by Kike Barberà. It was filmed in the basalt quarry of Castellfollit de la Roca, thanks to the valuable collaboration of Raúl Ortiz, the last stonecutter. The documentary Picapedrers is a journey through these stone landscapes and the people who inhabit them. But deep down, about the origin of the materials that build our cities.
