Camino (2023) Synopsis
From internationally acclaimed director Birgitte Stærmose, Camino is a wryly humorous drama about family baggage and connections.
Deep down, Regitze has never felt completely accepted at home for being who she truly is. Now in her early 30s, she finds herself with no job, no partner, no children and she is also no longer on speaking terms with her father, Jan.
Yet when father and daughter discover that Regitze’s mother’s dying wish was for them to reconnect and follow the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage trail together, the two set out on the 260-kilometre journey. Under the blistering Spanish sun, they find their complex relationship challenged in new ways.
Set against the spectacular backdrop of Spain’s Camino de Santiago, this poignant drama is an emotional story about our deepest bonds, and the struggles of feeling different from our family.
