The film will be produced by Barry Germansky, with Scott Martin and Michael Slifkin serving as executive producers. Casting is set to begin this summer, with a planned spring 2027 production start. Archstone will launch worldwide sales on the project at Toronto. The film’s official synopsis reads: “Set in 1948, Russian Poland follows two Jewish-American WWII veterans who, disguised as British airmen, steal a bomber to run arms to Israel. When a mysterious elderly Holocaust survivor joins them aboard the flight, his uncanny parables about a vanished shtetl transform their mission into a spiritual reckoning, one that may determine whether the three men reach the coast alive.” https://deadline.com/2026/06/david-mamet-russian-poland-archstone-toronto-1236941927/ ---End Quote---
