This program of short films might remind us of Hemingway鈥檚 famous metaphor for his writing style: 鈥淭he dignity of the movement of an iceberg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water.鈥 The 7 films in this program are certainly evidence of Jacob鈥檚 ever-evolving vision, but they are at best an infinitesimal sign of a remarkable, even more prolific, contribution to modern cinema and modern art.鈥 Scott MacDonald
