Looking For Infinity: El Camino film (on YouTube)

This was quite a trying project. 800KM, carrying heavy equipment. No budget. Ended up taking around 2 two years to get the film over the finish line. We tried to stay as close to the original pilgrim's progress by immersing ourselves in nature: a fantastic experience that I hope many will enjoy in the years to come.

The journey starts with the first step on a path of over five hundred miles; walking, sleeping, eating; life once again becomes simplified to its essential nature. Beyond the surface appearance of the ancient pilgrimage lies the challenge to reflect on ourselves and our way of life.

Now in the spirit of the Camino and sharing: the experimental film is freely available on YouTube in ten different languages. You are seeing it here first: I hope you enjoy it.


Please help spread the camino and share our passion project!
