The performance is a mystical interpretation of the biblical text. Shulamite is Sophia, who – according to Carl Gustav Jung – is the maternal, feminine energy of God. She confronts the watchmen of the night wall, those who want the world to be covered with darkness. Darkness – the opposite of love.
