"We are thrilled to finally have finished Tales of Babylon, it is a project that all of us have poured our hearts into, spending
many sleepless nights trying to make it the amazing movie that it is,"
says De Lario. "Tales of Babylon was really personal to me, because despite
being a story about gangsters, it is a story about London, with the city
as the protagonist and everything that makes it special at its core, the
diversity, the special type of culture we have and the variety of
characters that makes London such an exciting city.
Tales of Babylon is also a film about the family, about
finding your own family and about redemption, as the protagonists go
through the story trying to make amends for their past mistakes. I can’t
wait for everyone to get their eyes onto
Tales of Babylon because I’m sure they won’t be able to take
them off the screen."
The official synopsis reads:
Two siblings looking to escape their abusive mobster grandfather join forces with a pair of hitmen with a knack for the theatrical in their search for a new life in this tale of crime, violence, and redemption.
