Beyond Babylon,” was inspired by neighborhood anti-Iraq war protests in Hollywood, CA on the same spot where D.W. Griffith filmed the destruction of Babylon for his silent epic “Intolerance.”  The documentary short weaves past and present to examine the true cost of war, from 536 B.C to World War One to the beach memorials of Arlington West where white crosses stand as a silent testament to the lives lost in the current war in Iraq.
This film honors those who have died in Iraq and those who are still fighting
and dying today.   War shatters families, leaving behind a wound that never
heals.   It’s not just the soldiers and their families who have gone to war—
we all have.
