Run Baby Run

Diana is a woman, deaf from birth.

Diana wakes up and heads to a beautiful mountain track, far from the asphalt jungle in which she lives, to practice running surrounded by nature.

It is one of the sports that she is passionate about and that allows her to isolate herself from the looks of others and from the wild individualism of the city. It is her way of entering into communion and harmony with the world...

Diana begins her training in an idyllic landscape. Everything goes normally, until she comes across a mysterious runner.

Hidden behind the darkness of the hood of his sweatshirt, the runner and Diana begin a small running competition that degenerates into a desperate battle for survival.

Diana will have to use all her resources, wit and strength of will to survive the violent attack of her pursuer.

On her journey, Diana will experience a multitude of calamities. She will come across unusual situations, peculiar characters and unexpected allies.

Diana will arrive at the end of her journey as a woman who has proven to herself that she is capable of overcoming any obstacle.

In the end, an unexpected twist plunges us into a dizzying tale, where the dark runner and all the singular antagonists with whom he crosses on this wild and tortuous journey are defeated.

A race against the devil...

Run Baby Run is a non-stop action thriller feature film. A fable with a claim to being prepared for the worst and hoping for the best.

Director Biography - Toni Andújar

Tony Andújar Sanchez He was born on May
3, 1979 in Barcelona.
He is the son of Catalan merchants. His childhood and primary and
secondary education take place in Sabadell. At the age of 15, he shows a special interest in film inherited from his father, which becomes a passion that ultimately materializes in the purchase of an old Super 8 M / M camera, with which he makes his first work.

Son of the video era, he quickly replaces the old Super 8 film camera with a new and flamboyant Sony High Video, in which he begins to reflect his fanaticism in his first short films and home videos.

At the age of 21, advised by his family, he began studies in Business Administration, moving away from his dream of being a filmmaker.

At the age of 23, he enrolled in university to study
Systems Engineering.

During the first year of his studies, Toni and two of his classmates presented an Internet portal that ended up becoming a prolific service company, managing the exchange of data between teachers and parents of public schools. This project was recog-
nized with a State prize for the best youth business
project.

In the following years, he consolidated himself as a businessman, employing more than 70 workers.

After creating two subsidiary companies at the age of 30, he decided to recover his long-awaited dream of becoming a filmmaker and embarked on a new path, leaving behind the life of a businessman and returning to the life of a student.
He enrolled in the CECC (Centre for Cinematographic Studies of Catalonia), thus beginning his stage as a film student.

Three years later, he graduated. His first steps as a filmmaker focused on writing screenplays and making short films and music videos.

In 2019, he co-founded, with his wife Carolina Garrido, the production company Esdemangofilms, starting from the idea of developing their own screenplays and films with a clear commercial and international orientation. The first important project they decide to debut in 2022 is Run Baby Run, in which Toni serves as producer, writer, and director.

Director Statement

“Run Baby Run” is a movie that advocates for the pace and the desire of not wanting to stop until the last minute, tells a thrilling story of survival and overcoming the odds.
Although at first glance it seems like a light and entertaining movie, for me personally “Run Baby Run” goes much further.
This movie has a load of obstacles and challenges that our protagonist must face along the way.
Despite the disadvantages that arise, our hero refuses to give up.

The story of “Run Baby Run” takes place in a wild, isolated, hostile environment, where our hero must face both.
A dark character who will not give her any respite and forces that go beyond nature.
The images oscillate between beauty and threat, and the immensity of nature intensifies the isolation and helplessness of our protagonist. All of this, paradoxically, summons in her a terrible desire for revenge.

For me, “Run Baby Run” is a movie that has allowed me to remember all those movies that I enjoyed as a child, movies by Steven Spielberg, John Boorman, John Carpenter... I believe in
that genuine entertainment spirit and in that cinema for a broad audience, which has always inspired me and made me dream. I hope that “Run Baby Run” achieves that connection with the audience and become a breath of fresh air and a way to have a good time.
