The Knights of Columbus invite families to enjoy a free screening of the 2010 film, "The Way." The movie begins at 7pm in the Parish Hall. Refreshments will be provided.
In "The Way," actor, Martin Sheen, plays Tom, an American doctor who comes to St. Jean Pied de Port, France to collect the remains of his adult son. His son was killed in the Pyrenees in a storm while walking The Camino de Santiago, also known as The Way of Saint James.
Driven by his profound sadness and desire to understand his son better, Tom decides to embark on the historical pilgrimage, leaving behind his "California bubble life." Armed with his son's backpack and guidebook, Tom navigates the 800km pilgrimage from the French Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in the northwest of Spain. He soon discovers that he will not be alone on this journey. While walking The Camino, Tom meets other pilgrims from around the world, all broken and looking for greater meaning in their lives.
From the hardships experienced along "The Way," this unlikely quartet of misfits create an everlasting bond and Tom begins to learn what it means to be a citizen of the world again, and discovers the difference between "the life we live and the life we choose." "The Way" was filmed entirely in Spain and France along the actual Camino de Santiago.
