Jacob (2019)
Meet Jacob, who sells second-hand clothing to make a living – except his customers keeping buying on credit. Then there is his cousin who he lives with, who is as lazy as the day is long. How is a man supposed to make something of himself in these conditions?
Jacob is produced by well-known comedian Hogan Gabriel, who also plays a role in the film. Directed by Salifu Zakari, this comedy-drama stars many well-known Ghanaian faces, including Africa Magic Viewers Choice Award-winning Prince David Osei, as well as John Peasah aka Drogbah (YOLO) and Belinda Dzattah.
