Jakob The Liar
In Nazi occupied Poland, poor Jewish café owner Jakob (Robin
Williams) overhears a forbidden radio news bulletin signaling Soviet
military victories against German forces. To raise the spirits of those in
the ghetto, Jakob relays fictitious news bulletins about Allied advances
against the Nazis. When the Germans catch wind of the mythical radio, a
search begins for the man who operates it.
