Время по-разному идет для каждого. У камней — свое восприятие вечности. Они были, есть и будут, до людей и после людей. Вокруг скал сменяют друг друга века и цивилизации, растут и опадают деревья. Но было бы ошибочно считать камни мертыми и безжизненными. Герои анимационной комедии «Скалы» — забавные камни, которые общаются между собой, шутят и беспокоятся лишь об одном — растущем повсюду мхе. Может быть именно эти смешные герои стояли у истоком нашей цивилизации. Но сейчас их волнуют лишь бытовые проблемы.
