Photograph of a large hall with the image rotated sideways. Many men in dark or black shorts and bare-chested sit in long rows on blue mats along both sides, arms extended forward in a coordinated posture, facing an open central aisle. Overhead, dozens of colourful cylindrical banners in orange, red, blue and green hang from the white draped ceiling, interspersed with decorative umbrella-like shades in red, gold and black. Red and striped woven cloth covers the floor on the right. No identifiable central figure is clearly visible in this frame.
