Abstract
We introduce a supergravity model with a very simple hidden sector coupled to the electroweak gauge and Higgs sectors of the MSSM. At the classical level, supersymmetry and are both spontaneously broken, with vanishing vacuum energy. Two real flat directions control the two symmetry-breaking scales and . The two massless scalars are a gauge singlet and the standard Higgs boson. All other unobserved particles have masses of order . This may be a new starting point for studying the compatibility of naturalness with the observed mass hierarchies.
