Movies: "Babel" and "11:14

Excellent movie centering around a rifle.  Different vignettes of people's lives who owned or used it.

Good movies need to be discussed and Babel left me with a major question.  When the father comes home and sees his daughter standing naked on the balcony -- and he knows a man just left the apartment -- the father comes up and they share a tender moment.  Deaf or not, if my father witnessed this, I would have heard:  Get your clothes on!  There would be no hugs, and definitely no understanding.  So what was going on here?  Is there a cultural different I don't understand, was it symbolic of her exposing her entire self to him, or was there some kind of incestuous relationship between them?

The movie 11:14 is similar to Babel -- and why did they title that movie Babel?  The only Babel I know about is the Biblical tower of Babel?  Was it because so many different languages were spoken in the film?

Oh, 11:14 is similar to Babel but it has several vignettes centering around an accident that happened exactly at 11:14.  It is not as good as Babel, but well worth watching if you like vignette-types of movies.  You have to watch these kind of movies more carefully and think a little bit -- that is if they are well done.  Again, maybe I missed something, but what in the world was that girl going to do with that bowling ball?  Did not get that at all!
