Dato’ Seri (2016)

Synopsis

For fame, fortune, and power;
Obsessed with ambition, a man of noble birth and standing abandons his honour and, ultimately, his own sanity.

Follow the struggle – both in thought and action – of Dato’ Seri DiKajang, as he deals with the choices he makes, and the consequences that follow suit.

Dato’ Seri is a localised Malay adaptation of William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Macbeth, set in a re-imagined Malaya of the early 60s.

Taksub mengejar pangkat dan kuasa, seorang bangsawan dan wira negara sanggup mengkhianati raja dan membelakangkan perjuangannya sendiri.

Dato’ Seri adalah sebuah adaptasi Bahasa Melayu dari karya William Shakespeare berjudul ‘The Tragedy of Macbeth’ yang mengikuti jejak langkah serta nukilan fikiran seorang pemimpin yang gila kuasa.

“Usah impikan pangkat dan harta, kalau tak sanggup membasahkan senjata.
Alangkah molek kalau keris membunuh tanpa akibat, tanpa angkara.
Alangkah molek, tanpa sesal, tanpa dosa…
Tapi hakikatnya, mana busuk yang tak berbau?”
– Dato’ Seri DiKajang
