Central figures wear orange robes and sit on an orange cloth, with one bald-headed man in orange at the centre-right. Flanking them are men and women in white with yellow shawls, and a man in white with a red-and-white wrap. A seated audience in white clothes fills the foreground, viewed from behind, on a tiled floor with a striped multicoloured rug along the stage edge. Water bottles sit on the stage. No candidate's appearance clearly matches the a person cues, so no identification is made.
