Karjolsteinen (The Carriage Stone) is a Norwegian drama film from 1977. The film was directed by Knut Andersen based on a novel by Sigbjørn Hølmebakk with the same name.
== Plot == The radical author Olav Klungeland feels divided and inadequate both as a writer, as a politician, and as a fellow human being. He gradually becomes more acquainted with a former priest, Eilif Grøtteland, who comes from a small place in the southwest and lives in a hotel in Oslo at the same time as his wife is in the hospital, sick with cancer. On a rainy April night, the two young men are sitting in the hotel room. The older man tells the younger one about his life, from his childhood in small conditions further south in the country, through his youth and as a young man at the same time as he worked as a priest in Finnmark.
