A dark stage with a large pale cloth screen showing a projected or painted animation-style scene. On the left stands a dark grey shivalingam on a yoni-shaped base with a red horizontal mark on its front. In the centre, a stylised figure in rust-orange clothing with dark hair extends one arm toward the lingam. On the right, a figure with a shaved head and lavender-grey clothing faces the central figure, holding an object at the waist. The scene is a two-dimensional illustration on a screen, not physical people.

A photograph of a shadow-puppet style illustrated scene projected onto a white screen in a dark hall. Three figures stand beside a dark Shivalinga on a yoni-shaped base, marked with horizontal white stripes and a red dot. A small orange-skinned child figure with dark hair stands in the center, facing a bald figure in a lavender-purple robe on the right who holds a staff. The screen is framed by black drapes. Visible physical people: none apart from the screen figures.

A shadow-puppet style scene projected onto a white screen in a darkened hall. On the left stands a dark grey Shivalinga on a yoni-pitha base with horizontal white tripundra-like marks and a red dot. In the centre a small bare-chested figure in orange-brown tones faces right toward a tall bald figure in a lavender-purple long robe, who holds the child's hand and reaches toward it. The figures are silhouette-like cutouts, and the scene appears to depict a teaching or blessing moment beside the lingam.

A dark stage with a large pale projection screen showing an animated scene. On the left stands a dark grey shivalinga on a round yoni-shaped base with a red marking. Beside it, a shadowy animated figure with dark hair and a bare upper body faces a taller bald animated figure in a lavender-purple robe, who extends one arm toward the younger figure. The screen is a projected animation rather than physical people, so no living persons are visible.
