FILM
JACOBS is writer and director of the college comedy, KILLING POE, and of the documentary, BECOMING TRULY HUMAN.
​
BECOMING TRULY HUMAN is a post-secular experimental documentary that looks at the rise of the "Nones" (or those with no religious affiliation). The film offers one-on-one portraits of several nones, as well as group discussions that highlight the diversity of this demographic. Alongside these cinematic portraits is the story of a former none, Basil, who recounts his journey from religious non-affiliation to Eastern Orthodoxy.​
​
KILLING POE is a college comedy in which five students find themselves in the most infuriating class on Edgar Allan Poe ever. After weeks of abuse from their professor - and a 'shroom-fueled trip with a beat-boxing groundskeeper and a TV horror host - the group plots revenge. But their "simple" plan spirals out of control and they learn the hard but hilarious way what Poe's stories are really all about.
