An opera singer stands on a lifting platform reaching to the sky and sings a Martyr's wish for redemption. His fantasy spectacle creates a counterpoint between human voice and mechanical sounds of other platforms moving in space. The music, taken from one of J.S Bach's cantatas, is the Recitative Movement which describes the ascension of Christ and expresses the desire to become one with god.
