The Way


A warm feeling transcends over the cold location setting of The Way. A storyline containing a generic father-son struggling relationship evolves into a much deeper and meaningful self-finding exploration. When an exhausted academic (Emilio Estevez) turns to his father (Martin Sheen) to join him in a spiritual pilgrimage through southern France and Spain, little does he suspect it will be their final chance to reunite. Sheen, a single and successful LA-based doctor, soon finds himself tracking along the two-month Camino de Santiago journey by foot. His stubborn nature, coupled with the humour, mystery and flamboyancy of the characters he meets along the way, surprisingly compliment each other in a tale made to inspire. Beautiful scenery and local cultures add to an unforgettable experience that will leave your heart not only dreaming, but needing an escape towards self-fulfillment.
