Fred Media/Radar announced that its inspirational documentary, RUNN – The Nedd Brockmann Documentary, will be available to stream on Netflix Australia and New Zealand from 10th February.

Produced by WildBear Entertainment and Bursty Company, this one-hour film was introduced to the international market by Fred Media/Radar at MIPCOM 2024. Originally aired on Fox Sports Australia, RUNN now finds a new audience on Netflix, bringing its powerful story to an even wider viewership.

RUNN – The Nedd Brockmann Documentary chronicles the awe-inspiring journey of Nedd Brockmann, an everyday Aussie with an infectious sense of humor and an unbreakable spirit. Driven by a deep compassion for Australia’s homeless crisis, the young electrician set out on an unprecedented solo 4,000km run across the country to raise awareness and funds for the cause.

His mission resonated deeply with Australians from all walks of life, as well as high-profile supporters like Lily James, Hamish Blake, and Ash Barty. Beyond the physical feat, Nedd’s unwavering determination and heartfelt commitment to helping others turned him into a national hero—raising millions for charity and inspiring a movement of generosity and resilience.


Jimmy Elkington, Head of Sales at Fred Media, said:“RUNN is an unforgettable documentary that deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. We’re thrilled that Netflix Australia and New Zealand will bring this powerful story to its subscribers.This film offers a deeply moving and compelling portrait of one man’s extraordinary determination to make a difference. Blending humor, resilience, and raw human emotion, it paints a breathtaking picture of Nedd’s journey against the backdrop of Australia’s vast landscapes. We have no doubt that audiences on Netflix will connect with this story, which is as uplifting as it is inspiring.”

Adding to its accolades, RUNN’s director Serge Ou (WildBear Entertainment) was recently honored with a 2024 Australian Directors Guild Award for Best Direction of a Documentary Series Episode or One-Off in recognition of his outstanding work on the film.
