Synopsis: Jacob is a little boy living in a wardrobe. His entire universe consists of just one room. The window in this room is a portal to another dimension. But Jacob is not allowed to even look through it. Because in the world outside, little boys like Jacob - little Jewish boys - are not allowed to live and be little boys. JAKUB is a stark, intimate and powerful study of loneliness and longing of a survivor, hiding from the horrors of war. What will happen when he'll look out that window?
