CAMINO by Javier Fesser

Spain, 143 min., 2008. Teaser with English subtitles. Inspired by real events, CAMINO is an emotional adventure about an extraordinary 11-year-old girl who is simultaneously faced with two completely new events in her life: falling in love and dying. On his third film Fesser (The Miracle of P. Tinto, Mortadelo & Filemon: The Big Adventure) once more offers a childs perspective on the adult world. The uncompromising script is not anti-religious, though it successfully condemns the dehumanizing effects of religious extremism. It is earmarked for media attention thanks to its biting criticism of the controversial Opus Dei movement and Catholic fundamentalism in general. Widely acclaimed at its San Sebastian debut this year, the film has won 6 Goya awards (Spanish Academy Awards) including Best Director, Best Film and Best Original Script. Above all, CAMINO intertwines melodrama, horror and animation in outrageous new ways to enrich us with what is one of the most powerful Spanish films of the decade.
