Several men in white clothes and yellow-gold lanyards sit cross-legged while other men in white stand behind and beside them, placing hands on their heads in a blessing or healing touch. A cameraman with a video camera stands at upper left, and rows of red chairs and onlookers fill the background. Bags and a open booklet lie on the floor in front. No one is identified as a person in this frame.
