Jonathan Jakubowicz

[6][7][8][9] His latest film, Resistance, stars Jesse Eisenberg, Ed Harris, Edgar Ramirez, and Clemence Poesy.

One of them was the legendary resistance fighter Georges Loinger, who met with Jakubowicz and helped him with the research of the film, before he died on December 28, 2018.

Resistance was released in the United States on March 27, 2020, by IFC Films during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it became the number one theatrical movie in America for two weeks in a row.

Most multiplexes were closed, and only a few independent and drive-in theaters remained opened, which gave Resistance the most unusual top box office spot of all time.

[10] In November 2016, Jakubowicz published his first novel Las Aventuras de Juan Planchard, which became a best seller in the Spanish language market.
