What is the main depiction of No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre which was staged by director Hamid Samandarian?
No Exit No Exit (French: "Huis Clos" , ] ) is a 1944 existentialist French play by Jean-Paul Sartre. The original title is the French equivalent of the legal term "in camera", referring to a private discussion behind closed doors. The play was first performed at the Théâtre du Vieux-Colombier in May 1944. The play begins with three characters who find themselves waiting in a mysterious room. It is a depiction of the afterlife in which three deceased characters are punished by being locked into a room together for eternity. It is the source of Sartre's especially famous and often misinterpreted quotation "L'enfer, c'est les autres" or "Hell is other people", a reference to Sartre's ideas about the and the perpetual ontological struggle of being caused to see oneself as an object from the view of another consciousness.
