with a teacher – Andrew
– a much older man who
has mysteriously died
and left his vast estate
to Jacob.
Follow Jacob’s journey in COMMUNICATION, the
critically-acclaimed
story of love and
identity, which has
captured the hearts of
audiences around the
world.
Now, the award-winning
COMMUNICATION is yours
to own on DVD and

"COMMUNICATION beautifully observes the first
steps that many of us have taken along
the path to coming to terms with our own
identity and sexuality.
“It neatly ties in themes of religion
and the complications of unrequited love
between two men years apart in age.
“It packs the punch of feature film into
the medium of a short with an efficiency
that will move you long after the
credits have ended."
--Christian Martin,
award-winning writer/director “Shank”
and “Release”
Upon
hearing
that
Andrew
has
died,
and that
he is
the sole
beneficiary

will,
Jacob
returns
to
Andrew’s
home
looking
for
clues to
his
mentor’s
sudden
death.
But can
he find
the
answers
he needs
before
his
grief
overwhelms
him – or
before
Andrew’s
jealous
ex-lover
Charles
discovers
him
wandering
through
the
house?

Check
out what
critics
and film
festivals
have
been
saying
about
COMMUNICATION…
"A short
drama
that
doesn't
just
delight
but -
unlike
so many
LGBT
features
-
actually
delivers.
This is
one of
the best
shorts
of the
year."
-Jim
Carl,
North
Carolina
Gay &
Lesbian
Film
Festival
“This
poignant,
moving
New
Zealand
short
about a
young
Jewish
boy’s
struggles
to come
to grips
with an
unexpected
gift
from a
deceased
older
friend,
struck
all the
right
somber
notes
and was
a
fitting
winner
of this
year's
Best
Dramatic
Short Q
Award.
“COMMUNICATION,
like
last
year's
TEDDY,
is proof
that
director
Christopher
Banks is
a talent
to
watch.
We can't
wait to
see what
he does
next."
-Todd
Camp,
Fort
Worth
International
Gay &
Lesbian
Film
Festival
“COMMUNICATION
is one
of those
rare
films
which
dares to
tackle
the
often
unspoken
issues
which
many gay
people
experience
involving
religion
and
sexuality.
“This is
a
meaningful
story
around
intergenerational
love and
the
conflict
that can
arise in
being
true to
our
inner
self –
rather
than
societal
expectations.
Highly
recommended.”
-Akkadia
Ford,
Queer
Fruits
Film
Festival
“Christopher
Banks
once
again
proves
his
skill at
storytelling
and
character
development
with his
new film
COMMUNICATION.
“It
successfully
navigates
the
complexities
of human
relationships
in a
manner
that is
neither
pandering
nor
pedantic.
“The
film is
well
paced
with
actors
Rudi
Vodanovich,
Alexander
Campbell
and
Richard
Lambeth
expertly
conveying
the
difficult
emotional
barriers
that
often
lead to
mis-communications.
“Christopher
Banks'
film is
aptly
named
and very
well
done.”
-James
