In a dramatic scene from Rooftop Productions' contemporary theatre piece 'Testimony' (《山下的證詞》), four actors are gathered around a table in a dimly lit studio space. Two actors sit on opposite sides with their hands pressed together in a gesture of prayer or reverence, while two others stand and carefully manipulate a wooden, skeletal puppet. The staging emphasizes a reflective, solemn atmosphere characteristic of this Hong Kong stage performance. One performer expresses, 'But when Arjun arrives and sees his relatives across the battle lines, he can’t fight.'

Arjun’s Dilemma at the Battlefield

Arisa Yasaratne, Mohammad Kashif Ali, Michelle Li, and Basnet Tusar rehearse the pivotal moment where Arjun confronts his family across the battle lines: 'But when Arjun arrives and sees his relatives across the battle lines, he can’t fight.'
