    'Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.' 

    Behind a counter, Hodan Isse dreams. Drill, money, receipts, dreams, missing stock, bruises, friendship, dreams, an investigation, God, fractured foundations. Dreams.

    We follow Hodan Isse, a young sales associate who is accused of stealing stock. To prove her innocence she decides to investigate and uncovers more than she expected. 

    BABEL is a multidisciplinary show that explores the dreams and struggles of inner city working-class characters caught within the prism of a Shopping Centre. A show that interrogates our human need to build towers of illusion and hope to escape reality.
