Guns of Babylon tells the true story of the late Gerald Bull, Canadian gunsmith extraordinaire. It presents, in the docudrama form, the life and death of the Canadian genius who invented and developped the SUPERGUN for Sadam Hussein. Starting with the early chase of the suppliers of Bull's company, it takes us to Belgium where the supergun was conceived to Irak where the superguns were installed in what Bull called the Star of Babylon, a circular installation of six superguns at various angles in Irak. The big supergun, Big Babylon, was not found until the seconf Irak war started in 2003 and destroyed by British SAS members just before the fall of Bagdad. The supergun was conceived to fire a missile into space and wreak havoc with spy satellites. It was a prelude to what American engineers developped later as "Brilliant pebbles", the first killer satellite. Jean-Pierre de Villers
