Babel
The film looks very simple but it is not at all.
i keep thinking about it , trying to gather all fragments piece by piece, finding connections between them.
not only the linkage between four stories but also linkage within each story itself.
between parents and children ; couple ; family...
Four stories, four families can be seen as " unity" indivdually but what lacking between them is the coummication and understanding which cannot express in words.However, when it comes to the " breaking point", it bursted out into irrational behaviour ...
The Film title " Babel" already speaks for itself

Babel: n. 1. In the Bible, a famous tower built by a united humanity to reach toward heaven, causing God in his anger to make each person involved speak different languages, halting the project and scattering a confused and disconnected people across the planet.
