Fugitive Pieces Fugitive Pieces is a powerful, poetic, and emotionally-charged drama about love, loss and redemption written and directed by Jeremy Podeswa. The film tells the story of Jakob Beer, a man whose life is haunted by his childhood experiences during WW II. As a child in Poland he is orphaned during wartime then saved by a compassionate, Greek archeologist. He then spends the rest of his life trying to come to terms with the losses he has endured. Through his writing, and then through the discovery of true love, Jakob is ultimately freed from the legacy of his past. Fugitive Pieces is based on the beloved best-selling novel by award winning writer Anne Michaels and stars Stephen Dillane, Rade Sherbedgia, Rosamund Pike and Robbie Kay. The movie was created with the support of The Harold Greenberg Fund. Opening Night Gala Film, Toronto International Film Festival 2007
