Pyramus and Thisbe are a couple of young Babylonians in love.
Unfortunately, their families totally hate each other.
The star-crossed lovers whisper sweet nothings
through a crack in the wall that separates their houses,
until they eventually can't take it anymore and decide to elope.
But when Thisbe shows up under the mulberry tree
where they're supposed to meet,
a bloody-jawed lioness is hanging out there.
