The Road of the Camino de Santiago-to the ETERANAL CITY of the VATICAN in ROME, Italy
"This is the provocative invitation that led a group of pilgrims from Arizona to walk the Camino de Santiago (the Way of St. James- The name Santiago is the local Galician evolution of Vulgar Latin Sancti Iacobi, "Saint James".) and at the same time appear in the documentary "Footprints: el camino de tu vida.”
"We are looking for people who are willing to walk 550 miles throughout the course of 40 days. No guarantees are offered to get to this destination, but days of intense suffering are promised, cold and heat in equal proportions. Muscle strains and blisters are more than likely as well as discouragement invited to abort the plan. There will be little sleep, some nights will be spent on the hard ground or inside a sack under the rain.”
Eleven brave people with different backgrounds and personal stories agreed to the project without hesitation. Like all roads, eventually this one also came to an end, as they traveled from Santiago to Rome and discussed their journey while in the Eternal City.
"Footprints” is the latest project of Juan Manuel Cotelo, director of "La última cima” and "Mary's Land.” With this new film, he wants to show how the Camino de Santiago transforms the lives of the pilgrims who dare to undertake it." RomeReports

The road of Christ-to the ETERNAL CITY of the NEW JERUSALEM
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way,
that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way,
which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Matthew 7:13,14
