Synopsis

Through the experiences of four pilgrims and a guide, the images of the documentary invite you to enjoy the architecture, monuments, landscapes, fauna and flora, gastronomy, culture and people of the areas that make up the Ignatian Way. In this 650 km pilgrimage, pilgrims cross Euskadi, La Rioja, Navarra, Aragón and Cataluña, while meeting and interacting with the people, tasting the typical food of the local gastronomy or contemplating the monuments and the beauty of the surrounding landscapes. Mbassa Niang, Iñigo Medinilla, Iñaki Sánchez and Marta Burguet are the pilgrims in the documentary, people from different cultures, regions and religions. The guide of the group is the Jesuit Josep Lluís Iriberri, director of the Pilgrim's Office of the Ignatian Way, who for years has accompanied pilgrims from all over the world.

The film allows you to experience, as one more pilgrim, the visual and spiritual beauty of the itinerary that Ignatius of Loyola made from Azpeitia to Manresa in 1522. This year marks the 500th anniversary of this event that Manresa celebrates with a series of activities.

This documentary film has been directed by Jordi Roigé ('Amor colateral', 'Rock & Cat'). The director comments on the film: "To transmit the experience of walking the Ignatian Way, this has been our goal. The pilgrims, the context and the beauty of the landscape have made it easy for us, now we hope that many people will be moved to want to know this wonder in person."
