The film, The Way, begins with the story of two pilgrims, Daniel Avery and his father, Tom. The circumstances and motives surrounding their pilgrimages along the famous “El Camino de Santiago”/ “Santiago de Compostela” (or “The Way of St. James”) couldn’t be more different. Through the film’s storyline, numerous other pilgrims are met along the way (e.g. Joost, Sarah, and Jack); each with their own purposes and goals for making the pilgrimage. The film makes points of contact with various topics discussed in our lectures and readings. Therefore, in this Short Response, students will watch The Way then interpret religious and pilgrimage theories discussed in class by applying them to the film. This paper will be divided into two parts: Part 1 (700-800 words): Students are to provide an in-depth examination of one to three subjects and apply this/these concept(s) to The Way. Below, a number of lecture/prompt topics used throughout the course are listed along with their designated reading assignments. Students may choose to use one or more of the listed topics below. There is freedom to approach this Short Response creatively, but it is of dire importance that student’s clearly articulate their topic content well. Part 2 (200-300): For the second section of the paper, we will flip the script of the scholarly and turn it back to the personal. We see in The Way that at the heart of the Camino de Santiago is the opportunity for contemplation and transformation of one’s life. As viewers, we were brought into the pilgrim’s world of contemplation and transformation, and moved to put ourselves in the place of the characters who appeared. The director presented each character as broken and searching for greater meaning, a state that all humans find themselves constantly revisiting. After watching the film, take a few minutes to contemplate and write a reflection about key life-questions that The Way raises for you. These questions may concern your own self-understanding, faith, or social and familial relationships. In this section alone, students may use first person pronouns (I, me) to answer the prompt.
