„The straight line is ungodly and immoral!“ Friedensreich Hundertwasser

During the civil war of her hometown Thebes ISMENE did see and experienced evil things. She stopped speaking. In thoughts ISMENE calls for help: “Help me – that my soul may make it´s peace with the worldand the bird of souls´ anguish flies out of my mouth before I die.”

3 mythical figures support her: BOSCHINAWA, a master of shibari bondage art, CRU, a confused angry archangel and CUBEHEAD, the inner voice.

Bound by BOSCHINAWA, ISMENE for a long time floats across the world as she regenerates – her saint anger grows while she is listening to CRU, as he quarrels with the world.

With a strenghtened heart ISMENE finds back to live – All the suffering she have seen, opened her to feel deep empathy with all humans – & back to earth, ISMENE accuses the global system of greed, atrocity, inhumanity. She addresses all people: “I dance for you to ask you: Why do you transform suffering into beauty – instead of into a revolt?”

BOSCHINAWA, a master of shibari-bondage rituals, knots and loosens the knots of the soul. His red rope reminds on the thread of Ariadne. En route like in a labyrinth of trouble & suffering, man not only meets himself, but also his secret wish to make suffering in the world come to an end; His voiceless cry for revolution now bursts out of his throat: FUCK THE SYSTEM!
