Communion Kids

2004, 25 minutes

This film spends time with Adam and Lorna, two 8 year olds from Dublin’s inner city as they prepare for what Adam calls “the day they receive Jesus” – their holy communion day. An entertaining and insightful glimpse into the lives of these two little people.  We are with them at home, in school and a variety of colourful locations as they prepare for the big day, capturing their unique and sometimes hilarious mindsets.

Reviews
