DVD/Feature
For hundreds of years, men have lifted
heavy stones as a test of strength. One of the most famous of these Clach
Cuid Fir is Kviahellan, a 418 lb. stone slab located in Iceland.
Steve Jeck, a junior high school
physical education teacher, is inspired by the symbolism and unique challenges
these testing stones offer. This documentary follows Steve Jeck as he
prepares to not only lift Kviahellan, but to follow the old Icelandic custom of
carrying the stone around Snorri Bjornsson's two-hundred-year-old goat pen, a
feat few have ever accomplished.
