starring
Laurent Terzieff and Paul Frankeur
A pair of vagrants, Jean and Pierre, decide to walk from Paris to the shrine of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Their pilgrimage, interrupted by a series of bizarre encounters, becomes a trip through the history of heresy. Slipping through time and sometimes into other characters, the pilgrims keep doggedly on their chosen path.
Metaphysical, ironical, erotic and witty, Buftuel's exploration of the Catholic doctrine may be recondite but it is never dull.
