Maut Ke Saaye Mein - Play August 8, 2009

Maut Ke Saaye Mein is a hindi translation of the critically acclaimed play 'Morts sans sepulture' (Men without shadows) by french laureate Jean Paul Sartre.The play is based during the World War II, when France was being controlled by the Vichy government , which was nothing but a puppet in the hands of the Nazi regime. Five french revolutionaries have been captured by the soldiers of the Vichy government. As they wait for their turn to be tortured and interrogated, they delve deep into their hearts looking for courage, hope, peace or a reason to die. Some come close to breaking down , some realize the worthlessness of their lives and others want to die in peace.As the play progress we see, how the one's being tortured and the one's torturing them, lose themselves in this fight of ego and survival. All of them forsake their basic humanity and reason , and the only thing left in them is a self-destructive will to win.
