The actor Enrique Ariman, in a state of ecstasy at the foot of Mount Sinai, raises certain still burning issues, even if, these days, they are acquiring a quaint charm. He is filmed by oscillation, with a small shaking camera, and does not blink once in 40 minutes. "When it’s time for the TV news, read the I-Ching while you look at a video of goldfish, you will be informed about the world’s goings-on."

This video is part of a series of four texts about media ("Sermons") by Michel Bonnemaison. This video is the first "Sermon".
