Four young men sit cross-legged on the bare red earth in an outdoor work area, beside a low wall of red bricks. They are assembling small items on a white woven sheet and a pinkish cloth: pale cards with purple borders, some already filled with bright orange-red powder, and a few loose packets. The man at left wears a checked shirt, the one at top centre a striped shirt with a thread bracelet, the man at right-back a white shirt, and the front-right man a blue-striped shirt. A torn orange sachet and a stack of white papers lie among them. Nobody in the scene is identified as a person.
