A seated audience of roughly thirty people faces a stage in a bright hall with a wooden vaulted ceiling and tall windows. On the stage, a figure in white sits on an orange-cushioned chair before a banner reading SHIVA, with potted plants, flower arrangements, a lit candle and a framed photograph in front. A man in a white shirt stands at the right side of the stage holding a microphone. A large framed portrait of a turbaned man hangs on the left wall, and a tripod-mounted camera stands in the aisle. Audience members wear casual clothes in muted colours, and rows of wooden chairs with purple seats fill the foreground.
