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.
CAMINO is a love story, a tale of first love that is never forgotten, that demands nothing and yet moves mountains. It is an adventure of the human heart; the crossroads where the wellbeing of the body and the soul, pain and bliss, faith and reason, serenity and fear, light and darkness converge. All this is possible without departing from the real world, since even the world of dreams and nightmares experienced by Camino belong to reality.
This is a film about characters made of flesh and blood, with their thoughts, who see life from different stances, whose points of view are sometimes so diametrically opposed that coexistence necessarily strikes up contradictions between them, affecting both sides; all except Camino. After learning of an unusual sequence of events, I set out on an exhaustive search for documentation on many other cases of saintly lives and on the true mode of operation within the Opus Dei which ended up in a fascinating research project on the subject of people´s innermost feelings. In-depth knowledge of the testimonies and experiences of others who think quite differently to ourselves is an enriching experience when, far from attempting to prove them wrong, we try to get into their shoes. This is how I have become convinced that I could have ended up being any of the characters in this film: any one of them at all!
For me, CAMINO is a story that is packed with life, which in turn serves as an overwhelming argument in the struggle against sorrow.
