Director Atul Pethe, known for their innovation and experimentation with new themes and styles, have successfully prompted the
viewers to re-examine Socrates' thoughts in the context of the problems faced by the society today.
This Teleplay is not just a picturization of the play. A multi-camera set up and use of high resolution betacam format has allowed
Director Pethe to bring out nuances that may go unnoticed in a stage performance. This has added an additional dimension to the play
and has given the teleplay a character of its own.
This production has a special meaning for the SF Bay Area as it is produced by a well known artist and art enthusiast, Abhay Patil, a
long time Bay Area resident. The entire archival project came about due to his very passionate urge to bring it abroad.
