Robin Williams - Oscar winner and much loved star of movie hits like MRS. DOUBTFIRE, JUMANJI, THE BIRDCAGE and WHAT DREAMS MAY COME - tackles his most challenging role yet in the bittersweet fable JAKOB THE LIAR. In Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II, humble café owner Jakob Heym accidentally overhears a forbidden radio broadcast detailing Allied military success against the Germans. When he shares the secret with friends, the rare good news travels fast - but so does the rumour that Jakob is now a daring resistance hero because, in ultimate defiance of the Germans, he owns and listens to a radio. With a glimmer of hope returned to the ghetto, Jakob now finds himself under pressure to supply more news ... and since he doesn't actually have a radio, the only choice is to lie.
