$ 19.95
THE UNCUT AND COMPLETE SERIES: This adaptation of the Indian epic poem and subsequent stage play tells the story of two warring clans. The Pandava brothers come into conflict with the Kauravas, as both tribes, descended from deities, feel they can lay claim to power. Yudhishthira (Andrzej Seweryn), the eldest of the Pandavas, is told by the god Krishna that his destiny is to be king. And his brother Arjuna (Vittorio Mezzogiorno) has a talent for battle. But is war inevitable? Krishna's actions are fraught with ambiguity. Delivered sealed in case with artwork as shown on our page.
Note: This is the complete version of one of 'Great Masterpieces of World Literature' presented by the famed Royal Shakespeare Company director Peter Brook.
Viewer Quote: "This production of the epic Indian poem describes the war between the Pandava and Kaurava, opposing branches of the same family. This movie translates the power of myth to the screen better than any other by far. Mahabharata reigns supreme, just relax and enjoy."
