	Description:		In one way or another, over the course of about 2500 years, the Song of Songs has also been mystery of mysteries, allegory of allegories, love of loves, and even language of languages. Its verses are both lovingly crafted and enthrallingly disorienting. The Song of Songs polishes the many facets of love, raises up the physical and marvels at the transcendent, and in doing all this, exalts the very act of poetry. This documentary seeks out our best understanding of its origins, and tries to convey something of its power.
