A single performer stands centre stage in a dark theatre under a wash of green, yellow and white spotlights and haze. He wears an orange-gold dhoti-style costume, a gold necklace and a dark headdress, and holds a tall golden trident with his right hand. A video camera on a tripod sits at the stage edge, and audience silhouettes fill the lower foreground. The figure is a costumed stage portrayal of Lord Shiva, performed for a cultural presentation, not a physically identifiable a person.
