A dark stage shows a white projection screen with a painted illustration of a seated, ascetic-looking figure with a topknot and red-orange cloth, wearing a beaded necklace and armbands, on the left. Beside it, a silhouetted standing figure in front of a glowing orange-red form, possibly a shadow-puppet style projection. No physical people are clearly visible; the figures appear on the screen, with the standing silhouette cast on the screen as a shadow-like figure.
