Plot
Storyline
The starting point for the film is an 8mm amateur home movie from 1965, where Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Brian Jones from the Rolling Stones attends an after-concert party with local musicians and pop fans. For some the party never ends. Immortalized on a forgotten home movie, the party-goers try, forty years later, to make sense of these memories, and the eternal question of 'What could have been?'
An old roll of film from the summer 1965 shows a party in an apartment on Fersens road in Malmo. It shows local popidols from bands like Namelosers and Gonks, but also common pop guys and girls. They gather around some exclusive guests: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Brian Jones from Rolling Stones - the first international popband that visits Malmo. 40 years later the film creators meets some of the guests at the party. Rolling Like a Stone is a documentary about the people who had their identity shaped during the years in the mid-sixties. It is also a film about the difficulty of growing old with your dreams, and living in the present.
