The Road to Santiago

Following a life-transforming near-death experience in Thailand (see detailed story here) Alan Field gave up a life of crime to follow his dreams and become a filmmaker, going on to win numerous awards including a Bafta for a script he wrote for BBC 1's 'The Street' a gritty series set in the North of England. His film 'The Road to Santiago' which documents his personal journey of self-discovery along the Camino de Santiago is a culmination of a powerful inner calling to deepen his relationship with God and a divinely-inspired impulse to be a catalyst for other people's religious pilgrimages. He begins his journey following the footsteps of Paolo  Coelho, anticipating a promised meeting with the modern day alchemist, and ends it having touched the Divine within himself.

Walking the Camino: Six Ways to Santiago

Walking the Camino is an up-close look at one of humanity’s most time-honored traditions. By following pilgrims from all walks of life as they attempt to cross an entire country on foot with only a backpack, a pair of boots and an open mind, we witness the Camino’s magnetic and miraculous power to change lives. Driven by an inexplicable calling and a grand sense of adventure, each pilgrim throws themselves heart-and-soul into their physical trek to Santiago and, most importantly, their personal journey to themselves.

Movie: The Way

"The Way" is a powerful and inspirational story about family, friends, and the challenges we face while navigating this ever-changing and complicated world. Martin Sheen plays Tom, who comes to St. Jean Pied de Port, France to collect the remains of his adult son , killed in the Pyrenees in a storm while walking the Camino de Santiago,. Rather than return home, Tom decides to embark on the historical pilgrimage to honor his son's desire to finish the journey. What Tom doesn't plan on is the profound impact the journey will have on him. From the unexpected and, oftentimes, amusing experiences along "The Way," Tom begins to learn what it means to be a citizen of the world again. Through his unresolved relationship with his son, he discovers the difference between "the life we live and the life we choose."
