警官约翰·荷伯斯(丹泽尔·华盛顿 Denzel Washington 饰)新近逮捕了一名杀人犯里斯,此人除了在电刑前说了几句奇怪的语言跟留下了一则暗语,并无特别之处。然而荷伯斯很快发现里斯的暗语指向一名三十年前自杀的警察罗伯·米拉诺。与此同时,几起连锁杀人案接连发生,凶手的手段如出一辙,更令人惊异的是每次的受害者即是上一桩凶案的嫌凶。荷伯斯拜访了罗伯之女格瑞坦,对方劝诫荷伯斯放弃调查。里斯的留言终被破译,原来他用叙利亚的古语言向荷伯斯发出威胁,而荷伯斯的坚持有了进一步的收获,他发现罗伯与近期几宗凶案的死者可能皆出自名为“阿萨索”的恶灵之手,阿萨索可以随意依附人体作恶,荷伯斯的缉凶之路因此而困难重重。这场人与恶灵之战,究竟如何收场?

In 2013, an Australian man a few months shy of turning 60 decided to walk the Camino de Santiago – an 800km pilgrimage trail across the top of Spain. He had no known religion, and absolutely no idea why he felt so deeply compelled to do this torturous walk.
But compelled, he was.
He completed the walk, battling a “triumvirate of pain” - a knee that he later discovered lacked any meaningful cartilage, a blister the sight of which would make a grown man weep, and shin-soreness that felt like his lower limb had been split with a mountain axe wielded by a demented troll.
Arriving at the end of the Camino, the majestic cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, he expected an epiphany – an answer to the question he’d been asking himself every day: Why am I doing this?
But no answer came.
So when he got home he wrote a book, hoping the answer would reveal itself in his scribblings. The result was The Way, My Way, a humourous and self-deprecating book that many consider the best memoir ever written on walking the Camino.
The book has now been made into a film, and it’s an extraordinary account of a man at a pivotal point in his life, searching for meaning and finding himself undergoing a fundamental transformation so profound that he now divides his life into “Before the Camino” and “After the Camino.”
It’s a story particular to one man, yet of appeal to anyone seeking a greater meaning from life.
