Two long wooden poles frame the rope on either side, and a row of men and women in casual clothes and one shirtless young man watch from below, some holding and steadying the poles. Above, rows of orange, pink and multicoloured decorative lanterns and streamers hang from a white ceiling, lit by bright overhead lights. The setting appears to be a large indoor hall with white walls.
