“Walking the Camino: Six Ways to Santiago” — Filmmaker Lydia B. Smith’s documentary follows a half-dozen travelers as they make their way along the most popular of the medieval pilgrimage routes leading to the Spanish shrine of Santiago de Compostela. While only one hiker is motivated by her Catholic faith, all find the 500-mile journey a physically demanding but spiritually renewing experience.
Splendid footage of the magnificent landscapes through which they pass, interspersed with scenes showcasing new friendships, altruistic acts of kindness and courageous determination in the face of potentially debilitating conditions make for uplifting and enjoyable viewing, according to Catholic News Service. The subject matter is not likely to interest children, and a few crude terms and adult references make it inappropriate for them.
