The film is an adaptation of the 2000 novel Run, Boy, Run by Uri Orlev, based on the life of Yoram Fridman, who as an eight-year-old Jewish boy in 1942, escaped the Warsaw Ghetto and survived, largely on his own, for the next three years in rural Nazi-occupied Poland.
The screenplay by Heinrich Hadding and Pepe Danquart. The world premiere of the film took place on November 5, 2013, at the FilmFestivalCottbus in Germany.
