A rural dirt-road street in a Tamil village seen through a vehicle windscreen. An old yellow-ochre temple-like building with a dark domed roof and a row of finials stands to the right, beside a corrugated metal shed and a black tarpaulin covering a heap of straw. A woman in a red sari walks on the road near the tarpaulin. A cow lies in the dirt at right, and an auto-rickshaw is parked in the background among palm trees. Utility poles and wires cross the sky, and a small white wall sign with a poster is visible at right. No a person candidate is visible.
