A large hall with a concrete floor and white walls holds a seated group of men wearing white headbands tied over their eyes. They sit in rows on orange and blue mats and white chairs, many in white or light-blue shirts and dhotis, while some wear orange or saffron shawls. A tripod-mounted video camera stands at the left edge of the frame, and a dark speaker hangs on the wall above. Light enters through rows of high windows beneath a grey roof with white fabric panels. Nearly all in the frame are seated, and no clearly identifiable a person figure is visible.
