《磐石》的拍摄过程给了我们一个独特的机会去了解惠安影雕的工艺。我们不仅仅是探寻工艺，更是了解坚持工艺的匠人。蒋清兰是一位出色的影雕工匠，她的生活围绕着两件事：影雕和她七岁的女儿艺娴。蒋清兰是这个技艺的传承人，希望把技艺传承给她的女儿。这部电影尝试去表现和理解她与石头、女儿二者的关系。

Set in Stone gives us the unique opportunity to briefly look at the craft of Stone Shadow Carving from the Hui’an region of FuJian. Not only do we look and attempt to understand the craft but we also get to know the people who do the craft. Jiang Qinglan is one such extra-ordinary craftswoman’ from the region. Her life revolves around two things, Stone Shadow carving and her 7 years old daughter Yi Xian. Jiang is an inheritor of the craft and wishes to pass on the skill to her daughter. The film attempts to understand her relationship with both, the stone she carves on and her daughter.
