Director Statement
I am most interested in those complex stories that are hard to categorize. If our perspectives and opinions aren’t pushed outside of our comfort zone, then we will not grow. "Camino" provides glimpses into an American reality that many of us have not seen, thought about, or understood. My hope is that after watching this film, someone out there might have gained just a touch more empathy. That’s all we can hope for.
