LETTERS TO FATHER JACOB
Letters to Father Jacob is a warm-hearted and touching story of Leila,
a life sentence prisoner who has just been pardoned. When she is released from
prison, she is offered a job at a secluded parsonage and she moves there
against her will. Leila is used to taking care only of herself, so trouble is to be
expected when she starts working as the personal assistant for Jacob,
the blind priest living in the parsonage.


Every day the mail man brings letters from people asking for help from
Father Jacob. Answering the letters is Jacob?s life mission, while Leila
thinks it?s pointless.

Leila has already decided to leave the parsonage when the letters suddenly
stop coming. Jacob?s life is shaken to its foundation. Two completely
different lives are intertwined unexpectedly, and the roles of the helper
and the one being helped are turned upside down.

Letters to Father Jacob is representing Finland in this years Oscar awards.
