Depth takes more than one voice.
babil is a film and media house. Documentaries, essays and short films on ideas, history, science and how people live, made with many voices and disciplines.
See the week
Four short series, one a day, four days a week. Video and long reads.
Films made from the same ground, slowly, one at a time.
Much of the world lives in more than one language. Most of what happens in between is never told.
The interpreter in the booth. The word that has no equal on the other side of the border. The headline that changed meaning on its way into another language. The last few people who still dream in theirs.
babil is a house for those stories. It is made for anyone who has had to say something twice, in two languages, and noticed it was not quite the same thing.
four days a week
A magazine in series. Each one has its own day, its own colour and its own way of looking: reported essays, short films and slow reads on ideas, history, science and how people live.
Four series, each on its own day and in its own colour. Pick one to see its plate.
Every issue carries a number. The first will be 001. It is not out yet.
The longer form. Films about people who live between two languages, and about what is lost or kept on the way across.
Each film gets a release number instead of a season, and its colour comes from its own pictures.
