Currently Jessie is developing several TV projects including “Skinny Bitch” a comedy about women, bodies, and food. Jessie makes films to make the world feel like home. She lives in Los Angeles with her plants.
“Jessie Kahnweiler’s work is reminiscent of Louis C.K. The best comedy doesn’t just make us laugh. It forces us to ask questions about what our laughter means.” – Nico Lang
