En glovarm buss fylt med sløve amerikanske turister kommer trillende i en marokkansk ørken. Som lyn fra klar himmel treffes passasjeren Susan av et geværskudd, som også er startskuddet for tre skjebnesvangre historier som elegant flettes sammen til én vakker og smertefull fabel. Det essensielle temaet ligger i filmens tittel, nemlig myten om Babels tårn som symbol på manglende kommunikasjon og forståelse. En brennaktuell film med stor sprengkraft kombinert med universelle følelser. Forbered deg på Babel, en tindrende vakker, bevegende og sterk fortelling, som både har imponert både anmeldere og et stort publikum.
