The Stone Speakers is a 2018 Canadian documentary, directed by Igor Drljaca. The film examines the growth of ideological tourism in post-war Bosnia and Herzegovina.

It premiered in the Wavelengths section of the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival,[1] had its international premiere at the 69th Berlin International Film Festival,[2] and was acquired for Canadian distribution by Game Theory Films.[3] NOW Magazine's Kevin Ritchie called it "a timely film given recent debates around public monuments and who we decide to memorialize and why."[4]
