The story follows a boy who sets off into a journey to find his father and travels through the whole of the Świętokrzyskie Province. He is accompanied by a mysterious friend, Gabriel, who proves to be an original road trip companion.

The shoot will continue until mid-late August 2012. Haremski directed the hit children's TV series Klub Pana Rysia. The authors of script are Radosław Hendl and Piotr Chrzan. The set is designed by Marek Skrobecki, who worked on the Oscar-winning animated film Peter And The Wolf (www.breakthrufilms.pl).

The film is produced by Anima-Pol Film Studio (www.animapol.pl) based in Lodz with a budget of 2.2 m PLN (525,000 EUR). The film received 2 million PLN from the Polish Film Institute (www.pisf.pl) and 500,000 PLN from the Świętokrzyskie Film-Promotion Fund (www.rot.swietokrzyskie.travel).

"The script of Gabriel is a very funny and at the same time moving story about a new love and friendship, juxtaposed with elements of competition and even fighting. The dynamic plot and a brilliant cast are increasing the potential to get the young viewers interested," Paweł Wendroff, the producer told FNE.

"A full-length feature family film presenting locations only in the Świętokrzyskie Province is a dream script for us. A big asset of this project is the vast plan for distribution, first in cinemas, next in television and then on DVD, to reach the largest number of viewers," Adam Dąbek from the Świętokrzyski Film-Promotion Fund told FNE.

The leading roles are played by young actors Janek Rotowski and Natan Czyżewski, accompanied by a cast of experienced and popular Polish actors including Zbigniew Zamachowski, Krzysztof Globisz and Cezary Kosiński.

The premiere of the picture is planned for autumn of 2013.
