Babel
by
Alejandro González Iñárritu
Retro
A careless gunshot sets off a chain of events that changes the lives of various people on three continents. Those affected include a pair of tourists on a trip to Africa, a Mexican maid, a young deaf-dumb Japanese woman and two boys in the Moroccan desert. Each of them has to realize that he or she has done something wrong. After AMORES PERROS and 21 GRAMS, BABEL is the last part of Iñárritu’s ‘death trilogy’.
