Cineaste' presents two of the best satires which coincidentally synchronizes perfectly to the environment in our own nation in recent times.
Picnic on the Battlefield- also known as "Pique-nique en campagne"- is indeed absurd as the topic of life as a meaningless journey is questioned from the perspective of War. The absurdity achieves a new level when during an unannounced visit; parents arrived on the battlefield to cheer up their despondent son with a picnic. As the bombs continue to fall around them, the family accidentally captures an enemy soldier!
The play is engrossed with subtle humour in tragic plot & continuously shifts in mood and atmosphere, creating a certain chaos which also makes the play distinguish itself from the traditional plot.
'Hawalaat'- A famous satire written by the famous playwright Sarveshwar Dayal Saxena, is a hard hitting satire on the establishment which has failed to tap the most energetic human resource of the country
The story revolves around three youth who have no place to live. It was the coldest night of the winter and they were without food and shelter. The story proceeds with a meeting with policeman which leads into an interrogation session which reveals how every position holder of this nation has been befooling the system since independence.
