An angel lives among us....

Inspired on real events, Camino is the emotional adventure of an extraordinary eleven-year-old who is faced simultaneously with two completely new situations in her life: falling in love and dying. Above all else, Camino is a radiant light that shines through every gloomy obstacle in her path, denying every attempt to shroud in darkness her desire to live, to love and to feel the full depth of her happiness.

Winner of six Spanish Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director!

     

"A heartbreaking and utterly unforgettable experience." FILMINK

"I haven't been moved by a film for a long time as I was moved by this film..." David Stratton - At The Movies ABC

"an incredibly interesting film" Margaret Pomeranz - At The Movies ABC

"DARING... Compulsively watchable" HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

"Camacho has a joyous screen presence! Camino breaks the rules" VARIETY

"Few films manage to balance Hollywood sentiment and European irony as successfully as Javier Fesser's impressive third feature, which is based on the case of Alexia Gonzalez-Barros, a devoutly Catholic Spanish 14 year old girl who has become the focus of a cult of sainthood. Fesser keeps the audience guessing as to whether Camino is joking or serious, sarcastic or sincere. The result is a kind of three-way collision between The Magdalene Sisters, Amelie and The Song of Bernadette. " SCREEN INTERNATIONAL
