When a shared path opens new opportunities

A pilgrimage route, 2,000 kilometers, and two people who could hardly be more different: The Camino Therapy - Find Your Path combines moving social drama, sensitive comedy, and impressive landscape imagery. The screening on October 19, 2026, at the Schauburg Filmpalast is part of the KoKi series Filmland France.

Fred and Adam: Two life paths in conflict

Teacher Fred leads a seemingly ordered life that has long been out of balance. Adam, on the other hand, carries the scars of foster families, school exclusions, and youth detention. Outbursts of anger and a deep sense of abandonment dictate his everyday life. A resocialization program leads both of them on the Camino to Santiago de Compostela.

The dramaturgy of departure

Director Yann Samuell tells of a relationship that changes not through grand gestures but through friction, silence, and gradual trust. Arguments and unexpected twists drive the narrative forward. The dramaturgy makes every step an inner movement: Fred and Adam must confront their personal wounds before they can reach a common goal.

Between pilgrimage and inner landscape

The landscapes of the Camino de Santiago become the third main character. Vast paths, changing light moods, and the physical exertion of the hike reflect the emotional development of the characters. The stage and visual experience of cinema unfolds a special theater atmosphere: The acoustics of the hall, the concentrated darkness, and the large landscape panoramas create an intense theatrical experience on the screen.

A film about resocialization and second chances

The story draws on a real French initiative: Since 2002, an association has allowed young people from the penal system to undertake a accompanied transition hike on the Camino. These personal accounts form the basis for a film about resocialization, responsibility, and the power of human companionship. The performance is supported by the acting talents of Alexandra Lamy and Julien Le Berre.
