Jacob
From Brett Scott Ermilio's award winning screenplay, JACOB, comes a gripping tale of family, love and heartbreak.
Ryan and Jacob Crestwood are brothers in name, but are as opposite as oil and water. After the death of their father and the commitment of their mother to a mental ward, Ryan is forced into a fatherly role to his younger brother, Jacob. But even as they co-exist in one home, Ryan has yet to discover just how extraordinary his quirky brother actually is. On the outside the teenager is combative, bright and creative. But inside, Jacob is concealing darkness and imagination, two conflicting extremes that may tear him apart.
When Claire comes breezing into the town, both Crestwood boys are instantly entranced by her free-spirit and her lost soul. But as Ryan and Claire grow closer, a fierce passion lurks just beneath the surface from Jacob’s veil of creativity. Soon fantasies become delusions, dreams impede reality and a powerful infatuation threatens to shatter the broken family for good.
