Daniel was attempting to walk El Camino de Santiago, also known as The Way of Saint James, from the French Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Overcome with grief, Tom decides to walk the trek himself and along the way experiences his own emotional journey that brings him closer to his son.

Last week was a bit of a disappointment with only a few new releases and only one notable catalog release. This week has more new releases but it's still a bit of a mixed bag with one of last years better animated films being released plus two films that received very mixed reviews. Also being released this week are two well reviewed independent films, new seasons from two of Showtime's most popular shows, and a James Stewart classic.
