"The star of Vax is writer/director Barak Shpiez’s ability to create a thrilling short with indie filmmaking resources."

"Well made, meaningful and poignant, Vax is a great short film that succeeds in more ways than one."

"I want more, and if that's not a great compliment - I don't know what is. In my humble opinion, "Vax" earns a stellar four and a half stars out of five. Well done."

"Director Barak Shpiez conjures an impressive sense of stress and tension."

"I thought this film was freakin' great, to be honest with ya. There is precious little I'd think of changing here..."

"There have been plenty of great films in this genre over the years, but only a few have managed to capture the urgency and suspense that Vax, a cracking little conspiracy thriller from Barak Shpiez, succeeds in doing in just 12 minutes."

"Vax is a must-watch for anyone interested in socially conscious filmmaking."

"With strong cinematography that captures an eerie atmosphere created by dark labs and artificial lighting, Vax feels as though it could be a prelude to a feature thriller."
