Film club - men's group
This film club is free entry and is for men only. We meet up every month at the Training Centre, Glynneath from 7pm to 10pm to watch a film and then chat about the themes. We've watched films like True Grit (the remake) and The Hurt Locker.
The next film will be shown on Friday 11 May. The film is 'The Way' starring Martin Sheen.
Don't forget to bring your own drinks and nibbles.
Synopsis - Martin Sheen plays Tom, an American doctor who comes to France to collect the remains of his adult son, killed in the Pyrenees in a storm while walking The Camino de Santiago, also known as 'The Way of Saint James'.
Driven by his profound sadness and desire to understand his lost son, Tom decides to embark on the historical pilgrimage, leaving his California life behind.
Armed only with his son's backpack and guidebook, he begins the 800km historical pilgrimage but soon discovers that he won't be alone on this journey - he meets other pilgrims from around the world, all broken and looking for greater meaning in their lives.
From the hardship experienced along "The Way" an unlikely group of misfits are bonded and Tom begins to learn the difference between "The life we live and the life we choose."
