Babel- A couple on vacation (Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett) goes to hell when the wife gets shot by accident by two teens from afar, which triggers a life changing event for four different people in three different continents. -Movie Menu’s Pick of the Week-

The history of Babel is fascinating. According to the narrative in Genesis Chapter 11 of the Bible, the Tower of Babel was a tower built by a united humanity to reach the heavens. Because the hearts of men were said to be inherently evil and disobedient, they were striving to make a name for themselves instead of worshipping the God who created them. Because of this open defiance, God stopped their efforts by confusing languages so that no one could understand each other. As a result, they could no longer communicate and the work was halted. The builders were then scattered to different parts of Earth. This story is used to explain the existence of many different languages and races. The tower of Babel never got close to being finished.
