Set on the Italian coast, RUN explores the human cost of the migrant crisis in a tense and timely story of empathy, chaos, and consequence.

RUN is about empathy and consequence. It looks at the refugee crisis not as a political issue but as a human tragedy unfolding in real time.”

— Uwe Boll

BERLIN, GERMANY, November 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Acclaimed German filmmaker Uwe Boll returns with RUN, a gripping new thriller that confronts the escalating migrant crisis in Europe through a raw and unflinching lens. The film will premiere on November 14, 2025, on Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube.

RUN tells the story of a boat carrying migrants from across Africa to Italy. When the vessel’s engine fails, tensions explode onboard. After making landfall, chaos follows as the migrants scatter to evade authorities, setting off a chain of events that draw in locals and tourists alike. Over the course of one day, their lives intersect in ways that lead to a violent and tragic confrontation.

The film features an extraordinary ensemble cast led by Amanda Plummer (Pulp Fiction, Star Trek: Picard), James Russo (Tulsa King, Donnie Brasco, Django Unchained), Ulrich Thomsen (DC Studios “Lantern”, The Celebration, The World Is Not Enough), and Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips). They are joined by Kristen Renton (Sons of Anarchy), Daniel Sauli (The Deuce), Marcus Henderson (Get Out), Costas Mandylor (Saw), Sammy Sheik, Mohammed Qissi, and newcomer Hannah Balogun.

Produced by Event Films in association with Bolu Film, Borvel Film, and ElemenTree, the film reunites Boll with longtime collaborators including executive producer Michael Roesch (In the Name of the King, BloodRayne), producer Boris Veličan, cinematographer Mathias Neumann, and editor Ethan Maniquis (Machete, First Shift). The score is composed by Maarten Buning and Stan Koch, with post-production completed at Tunnel Post in Santa Monica.

Boll, whose previous works include Darfur, Rampage, and Assault on Wall Street, has long been known for tackling politically charged and socially relevant material. With RUN, he delivers one of his most urgent and topical films to date.
