Jakob the Liar

  (1999)
Jakob le menteur
While detained at Nazi headquarters, Jewish shopkeeper Jakob (Robin Williams) overhears a broadcast about Soviet troop advances. Back in the Warsaw ghetto, Jakob shares the news with his friend Mischa (Liev Schreiber), who believes Jakob has obtained a radio -- something the Nazis have forbidden. Instead of explaining what really happened, Jakob concocts more fictitious news about the war to raise morale in the ghetto.
