Synopsis:

Two timeless tales intertwine in this theatrical performance, bringing together the Buddhist parable of Kandata’s torment in hell and the revered Mahabharata story of Shakuntala. Though their fates will never cross, they are bound by a shared struggle—each resisting the destiny imposed upon them. Rooted in the indigenous spiritual beliefs of Asia, this performance invites audiences to reflect on humanity’s coexistence with the divine and nature in a chaotic world. The play is a joint production of artists from Japan and Nepal and is based on stories written by Kalidasa and Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
