Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Robert Schenkkan, By the Waters of Babylon tells the story of an unlikely romantic encounter. A widowed woman in Austin, Texas hires a soulful writer-turned-gardener to tame her back yard. Both feeling alienated -- Catherine is a widow who's been shunned by her community, while Arturo is a Cuban immigrant -- the two express their fears and desires to each other, uniting via some mutual healing over the course of a day and evening.
