A photograph of a shadow puppet performance projected on a white cloth screen in a dark room. Two flat painted puppets stand in profile: a taller figure on the left in orange-brown lower clothing with a yellowish body, and a smaller reddish-orange figure on the right in a striped green, red and white top, gesturing toward the taller one. Both puppets have dark hair. The screen is otherwise blank, and the scene is lit from the front. No physical people are visible.
