Interior of a large, high-ceilinged hall with exposed steel roof trusses, ceiling fans and white walls under bright windows. A man in a long orange-saffron robe with a draped orange shawl stands in the foreground on the bare floor, one finger raised as he addresses the room. Behind him, many seated people at long tables wear white ritual clothes with orange or yellow shawls, some with orange sashes; they are eating from plates. A large metal basin of food sits on a side table at left. The standing figure has long swept-back hair and a shawl, though his face and adornments are not clearly visible enough to confirm an identity.
