Profound texts about the creature man and his origins are mixed with everyday images such as four competition swimmers, models and the doors of the New York subway trains, luxuriantly painted with graffiti. We see doors open and close and we see dervishes singing and dancing in a meditative and whipped up rhythm. Questions about our existence and reality are left hanging, whoever we are and whatever we are doing. Whether we dance, swim or parade about in our extreme beauty. The astonishment is put into words in a text from Rumi: "Who is that in my ear who listens to my voice, who is that in my mouth who speaks my words ..., who provides the image in my eyes, and who is ultimately the soul, whose clothes I am?" The apple hangs twisting in the air, temptingly red like the first apple in paradise, a rose window in a dome connects us with the clouds lying behind and with the plane, whilst the swimmers, exhausted, lie sloppily draped in a corner and the question remains unanswered, bobbing about on the water.
