The journey of the Magi to Bethlehem is the subject of the great Italian artist and filmmaker Ermanno Olmi's 1982 epic tone poem KEEP WALKING (CAMMINA CAMMINA). Shot in Northern Italy in rustic and rural locations and filled with amateurs, this magical film is spiritually rooted in a way that is open to all faiths. Or to those with no faith. I was reminded at times to Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales" as the Magi interact with a caravan of soldiers, merchants, villagers and assistants following in the direction of a comet.
