Mahabharata R2 (Uk Import) - Brook, Peter
Releasedatum: 28 mei 2005
The Mahabharata is at the very heart of Indian culture - in religion, myth and legend. One of the oldest stories in the world, and certainly the longest at over 100,000 stanzas, it has proved fertile ground for artists and their audiences since time immemorial. Long-time collaborators Petre Brook (director) and Jean-Claude Carriere (screenwriter) created the three separate plays that comprise this version of the epic, producing a globally successful nine-hour stage production, a three-hour TV version and this DVD release, at just over five hours. The central story is of the lifelong feud between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, two closely related regal families, but the many subplots, diversions, fables and legends turn this mythological epic into a story of and for all mankind.

DVD Extra's:
Booklet with introductory and explanatory text by Peter Brook and Jean-Claude Carriere, synopses and credits.
