The Stone Merchant (Italian: Il mercante di pietre) is a 2006 Italian thriller-drama film produced, written and directed by Renzo Martinelli and starring Harvey Keitel. It is based on the novel Ricordati di dimenticarla by Corrado Calabrò.
Ludovico Vicedomini is a charming and charismatic dealer who sells precious stones in Europe and the Middle East. But behind his pleasant appearance, he hides a big secret. Along with his business partner Shahid, he plans a terrorist attack on a large scale.
With the conspiracy almost ready, Ludovico meets Alceo and beautiful Leda, a married couple who enjoy holidays in Turkey. They do not suspect they are participating in a mysterious and deadly game with Ludovico and his partner.
However, fate takes hold of Ludovico, who becomes infatuated with Leda. She, receiving a precious ring from the merchant, must now choose between her husband and the mysterious man who fell in love with her.
