Chapel at Roncesvalles, a first stop on the Camino de Santiago in Spain, EOP 1998.
Review of the Martin Sheen Movie:
"The Way, Emilio Estevez's fourth feature as writer-director, begins at the Camino de Santiago's start, in St.Jean-Pied-de-Port below the often-snowbound Route de Napoleon over the Pyrenees. Starring Martin Sheen, Estevez's father, it takes in Galicia's improbable looking Santiago de Compostela, a huge piece of medieval real estate topped by a jaw-dropping cathedral. Sheen plays Tom, an American widower who;s in St. Jean too reclaim the body of his estranged son, who died, lost on the Route de Napoleon. Tom cremates the remains, puts them in his son's backpack and starts off to complete the young man's journey.
