The tragic aftermath of human carelessness travels
around the world in this multi-narrative drama
from filmmaker Alejandro González Iñárritu.
Richard (Brad Pitt) and Susan (Cate Blanchett) are
a couple from the United States who have traveled
to Morocco in Northern Africa on a vacation after
the death of one of their children has sent Susan
into a deep depression. Richard and Susan's other
two children have been left in the care of Amelia
(Adriana Barraza), their housekeeper. Amelia is
originally from Mexico, and has learned that her
oldest son is getting married in Tijuana. Unable to
find someone who can watch the kids, Amelia
takes them with her as she travels across the
border for the celebration. Meanwhile, in Morocco
a poor farmer is given a gift of a fancy hunting
rifle, and he gives it to his sons to scare off the
predatory animals that have been thinning out
their goat herd. The boys playfully shoot at a bus
far away; the shot hits Susan in the shoulder, and
soon she's bleeding severely, while police are
convinced the attack is the work of terrorists. In
Japan, Chieko (Rinko Kikuchi) is a teenaged girl
who can neither hear nor speak. Her inability to
communicate with the world around her has
caused her to act out in a variety of ways, from
throwing a volleyball game at her school to
exposing herself in public. Chieko's father
struggles to reach past the emotional distance
which separates him and his daughter, in time
leading them to visit Morocco.
