“BOY ON THE RUN”
69 minutes, in English

This poignant and profoundly insightful film tells the gripping story of Paul Galan, who recounts the unbelievable story of his family’s survival in the Holocaust as a child. Amidst numerous close calls to death, he and his family eventually found themselves in a labor camp in Slovakia, where they were liberated during an uprising. Soon after, they embarked on a perilous journey across the Sudetes mountains, disguised as Lutherans with falsified documents, desperately seeking refuge from kind-hearted strangers. Boy On The Run vividly recounts this extraordinary journey, including a tense night when he and his family found themselves sharing quarters with Nazi soldiers.
