PHIL'S CAMINO: SO FAR, SO GOOD is the story of a man with stage 4 cancer who dreams of walking the Camino de Santiago, a 500 mile long spiritual pilgrimage in Spain. Getting chemo treatments every two weeks, he is unable to travel, so he does the next best thing: he makes his own Camino in his backyard, walking the perimeter of his property through woods and pasture, and sets out to walk his way across Spain without ever leaving home. The simple act of walking, both in his backyard and eventually on the trail in Spain, reveals the key to his physical, emotional, and spiritual healing, and he realizes his greatest pilgrimage is the one he travels within. This film is a longer version of the short documentary PHIL'S CAMINO which premiered at SXSW and won 16 film festival awards. It is a riveting story, full of inspiration and charm, and tackles how one man shines in the face of insurmountable obstacles.

Phil's Camino: So Far So Good

With the odds against him, Phil realizes the most important journey is the one within.

RECORDED COMMUNITY CONVERSATION with director Annie O'Neil "Come, walk with me," was the invitation Phil extended to Annie in 2014. It seems like perfect timing as we ask the same of you now, to walk through this experience with us as we embrace Phil's story and what it means to dream of doing something impossible.&nbsp; After the film, your fellow seekers and director Annie O'Neil gathered for a movieclub-style discussion of Phil's Camino. What did you think of the film? What came up for you? Hear how others experienced the film and contemplate your own journey, your own personal pilgrimage, and how you have overcome obstacles in order to live a life of meaning and gratitude.&nbsp; This conversation took place live on June 28, 2022 via Zoom.
