A woman who was turned into a pillar of salt when the city of Sodom was destroyed, as told in the Bible, returns to life and explains to us what really happened, undoing the “official” version of events. Who destroyed Sodom and why? We soon find out that it’s not Lot’s wife. It’s a live testimony, and it’s back with a mission. Pandora, Lilith, Eve, Mary... A patriarchal culture has redefined the place of women in the world by turning their old role of “subject” into that of “object”, all while restricting their nature to the role of Mother or Virgin, as a result of dismissing their sexuality as a disorder, subversion or sin. Who is demanding a life of sacrifices? Is it possible for there to be paradise on Earth? For whom are women a problem? The age-old, mythical question, revisited from a contemporary perspective.
