Le viol est-il un tabou dans notre société ? Cinq femmes violées, cinq archétypes de viols perpétrés aujourd'hui, cinq cas inspirés de faits réels et de personnes ayant existé. À tour de rôle, les cinq victimes vont devoir répondre à un interrogatoire et prouver leur "innocence". Ce questionnement qui semble d'abord utile et légitime devient obsessionnel et oppressant. C'est le questionnement de la police, celui de la justice, celui de la société, le harcèlement et la ronde infernale de questions qui vont fondre sur la victime, jusqu'à l'absurde, qui vont faire naître le doute, rendre la victime suspecte et la faire apparaître comme coupable.

Enregistrée par Pierre Bellemare dans la Cathédrale de Périgueux. "La Passion", de Charles Péguy, est extraite du "Mystère de la charité de Jeanne d'Arc". La Passion est l'acte physique le plus métaphysique de la Bible, sur lequel repose toute la culture des sociétés de l'Occident chrétien, fondée en partie sur l'idée de culpabilité héritée de ce martyre.
Le texte de Charles Péguy met en scène une réflexion lyrique tout à fait opposée à la pensée Saint-Sulpicienne, qui ne s'empare pas de la dimension humaine des événements bibliques.
