quite an achievement without words.

The central story involves Richard and Susan， married parents of two young children who are attempting to overcome the recent death of a third child by vacationing in Morocco. Susan is shot in the shoulder when the coach she and Richard are traveling on is chosen as a random target by two young boys who are trying out a new high-powered rifle given to them by their goat-herding father. Back in California, Amerlia (Adriana Barraza), the Mexican nanny of Richard and Susan's children, is forced to take them across the border to Tijuana so she can attend her son's wedding. The third story involves a deaf-mute student Chieko (Rinko Kikuchi) who's struggling to come to terms with her mother's suicide and the frustrations her disability imposes on her burgeoning sexuality.

All three stories are linked both by circumstance and theme to create a unifying motif. Inarritu's penchant for playing with time and jumping between the storylines has the effect of breaking tension rather than increasing it. Where Babel does succeed is showing how inadvertent actions can have devastating effects.

Pitt is admirably unglamorous as the distraught Richard, who frantically tries to deal with Moroccan bureaucracy to get help for his wife. Wastefully Blanchett is given little to do other than wince and Gael Garcia Bernal appears all too briefly as Amelia's wayward nephew. The striking Rinko Kikuchi, in a starkly vulnerable and brave performance, provides Babel with its emotional core, quite an achievement without words.
