Helen Paul excited by Jacob’s Mansion

Comedienne and actress, Helen Paul, is back on set after taking time out to have another baby late last year. The rib cracker is
currently filming on the set of Jacob’s Mansion, a new movie being produced by Chichi Nworah and di­rected by Chris Eneaji.

In a telephone chat with Entertainer, Helen opened up on the project which she described as being very close to her heart: “This movie is very close to my heart. I play the role of Becky which is the lead role. It’s a good script because it exposes how society places pressure on young people, especially women by placing unnecessary high expectations on them. And sometimes these young people are driven to do extreme things.”

Jacob’s Mansion is woven around Becky, a young lady of Urhobo extraction who travels to the UK in search of greener pastures but ended up being deported shortly after arrival. In a bid to frustrate her parents who constantly disturb her about mar­riage and their upkeep, she secures the job of a housemaid and sends them money regularly but refuses to return back to her roots in Delta State. However, her childhood friend runs into her and informs her parents of their daughter’s whereabouts.

Becky is alarmed as her parents pay her a surprise visit! She begs her boss, Mr. Jacob, to please play along with her while they are around because she lied to them that she was stay­ing with her fiancée and then the drama begins to un­fold.
