Sobre este filme

When Tom (Golden Globe® Award winner Martin Sheen, The West Wing), a stubbornly sage American doctor arrives in France, no experience in his illustrious life has prepared him for the untimely death of his adventurous son Daniel (Emilio Estevez). Grasping at memories and missed opportunities, without a compass to set him straight, Tom faces unimaginable cross roads in his life. Coming to terms with his loss and compelled to understand Daniel's spirited ideals, Tom embarks on the grand historical pilgrimage "The Way of St. James" in order to honor his son and fulfill his last wish to complete the journey. An inexperienced trekker himself, Tom meets other pilgrims from around the world, also looking for greater meaning in their lives: a Dutchman (Yorick van Wageningen, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), a Canadian (Deborah Kara Unger, Silent Hill) and an Irish writer (James Nesbitt, The Hobbit), who is suffering from a bout of writer's block. This unlikely quartet of international misfits forge an everlasting bond and allow Tom to discover what it means to be a citizen of the world again, to truly appreciate the remarkable difference between "the life we live and the life we choose." © The Way Productions LLC 2010

It's a good film and I enjoyed it immensely. It struck a nerve and makes me want to go back to the land of my Mother, spend more time in Galicia.

A beautiful piece of film..quietly focussing on some big issues. Loved it

Fantastic movie. It really resonates the spirit and self discovery of the pilgrimage
