Jacob

Jacob (1994) is a biblical adventure drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Peter Hall. Matthew Modine plays Isaac's younger son — a man who tricks Sean Bean's Esau out of his birthright and then has to run for his life.

Taking shelter with uncle Laban, Jacob finds out what it feels like to be the one outmaneuvered. The wide European co-production brought together Christoph Waltz, Giancarlo Giannini and Irene Papas in a cast that gives the Genesis story real dramatic weight — the cycle of deception costs every character something permanent.
