A night-time photograph of a rural road in Kuttiyankuppam village, lit mainly by the glow of a vehicle. In the foreground a man in a white striped shirt and checked lungi stands with his back to the camera, holding something small in one hand. Beside him a second man in white stands near the vehicle. A yellow mini-truck marked SOUND SHOP has its rear covered with a striped cloth and several people in white shirts and caps are standing on its bed, one reaching down. A woman in a blue sari with a light shawl stands near the truck, while a few other women and a man in a dark shirt are scattered along the road beside a stray dog. The scene appears to be a relief-work distribution at night.
