The Hanging Gardens of Babylon

Comedy short film for children

What if the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, were balanced?

Synopsis

A young gardener tries his best to maintain the balance of the lush hanging gardens of Babylon.

Film commentary: The Hanging Gardens of Babylon

Numerous historical reconstructions have made it possible to imagine what the gardens of Babylon, considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, might have been like.

Today, when the real historical existence of the gardens is being questioned, the idea of imagining the gardens of Babylon in balance is very amusing. So unstable that a small insect can topple the entire gardens?

Children will imagine why the gardens wobble from left to right or how they actually stand.
