Devery Jacobs is transcendent in #Backspot, eclipsing mere characterisation as she embodies the spirit of an athlete with haunting beauty, a performance fuelled in a sense of raw vulnerability and strength in this intricate marriage of ambition and her mental and physical health.
The beating heart of #Backspot is the effervescent Devery Jacobs in her portrait of Riley, a cheerleader who holds a passion for the sport as mountainous as the pyramids that she helps build, capturing the exhaustless essence of an athlete pouring her entire being into the craft.
