What would a Sanskrit drama feel like if it were set far into the future? Sakuntala: Ang Singsing ng Kapalaran is an interesting take on Kalidasa's Sanskrit play The Sign of Shakuntala, which is based on the story of Shakuntala told in the epic Mahabharata. Allan Palileo’s Philippine version is set in 2080, in a devastated Palawan where a young king named Dushyanta falls in love with the princess Sakuntala. The powerful god Durvases curses the two and makes Sakuntala lose the ring (as well as the fond memories) given to her by Dushyanta.
