Zoe Bell flees a maniac in action-thriller Camino, from the director of Raze

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

It’s hard to picture certified ass-kicker Zoë Bell ever being put in a position of distress, but that would appear to be the case in CAMINO, an action-thriller that reunites Bell with her RAZE director Josh C. Waller. XLrator Media has acquired the distribution rights to CAMINO and will release the film in 2016.

Bell isn’t the only person of interest here. Director Nacho Vigalondo – of TIME CRIMES and OPEN WINDOWS fame – plays the villain. Vigalondo has always been a charismatic, entertaining fellow, so it’s not surprising to see that he’s ready to step in front of the camera for a change.

Here’s the plot:

Set in 1985, war photographer Avery Taggert (Zoë Bell) has built a solid career with her stark and honest imagery, all the while remaining emotionally distant from her subjects. When she embeds in the jungles of Colombia with a squad of missionaries led by a beloved and charismatic Spaniard known as “El Guero” (Nacho Vigalondo), she finds herself in the middle of a conflict as violent as any she’s photographed. One night, she happens upon El Guero committing a heinous atrocity, capturing the vile act on film, an image with the potential to discredit and destroy El Guero. Knowing this brilliant psychopath will employ every tactic at his disposal to destroy that photograph – and the photographer who took it – Avery flees into the harsh jungle with nothing but the camera hanging around her neck to escape from missionaries twisted into violent guerrillas by the madman intent on destroying all enemies.

CAMINO co-stars Sheila Vand and Dominic Rains (A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night), Francisco Barreiro (We Are What We Are), Tenoch Huerta (Sin Nombre) and Kevin Pollak (The Usual Suspects, A Few Good Men, Casino).
