Three boys sit close together on white plastic chairs in a dimly lit space, apparently working on school-style exercises. The boy on the left, in a white shirt with a small red mark on his forehead, writes in an open notebook with a blue pen. The middle boy, in a light blue striped shirt and grey trousers, holds a blue pen up and smiles at the camera, with a notebook open on his lap. The boy on the right, in a yellow shirt with embroidered trim, holds up a sheet of paper covered in handwritten arithmetic calculations, partly hiding his face. The scene appears to be a children's learning session.
