"jOBS," according to production notes, "is the powerful and true story of the visionary who set out to change the world…and did. The film chronicles Steve Jobs' transformation of character from the enthusiasm and self-discovery of his youth, to the personal demons that clouded his vision, and finally to the ultimate triumphs of his later life."
The production began principal photography in Los Angeles and Los Altos in mid-June. A winter 2012 release is planned.
A Five Star Feature Film Production, "jOBS" is produced by Mark Hulme.
