The image depicts a street in Onitsha, Nigeria, heavily covered in refuse under an overcast sky. In the foreground, a dark-skinned woman, wearing a leopard-print headwrap and an orange dress with black palm tree patterns, walks away from the viewer, barefoot. She holds the right hand of a young child in a pink striped shirt, light shorts, and green sandals. Another child, slightly older, walks beside them, wearing a green and brown top, blue jeans, and pink shoes, with hands clasped behind their back. The unpaved dirt path is entirely covered with various types of trash, predominantly black plastic bags, wrappers, and general debris. To the right, a low concrete barrier separates the path from a reddish-brown wall topped with coiled razor wire, guarding a multi-story building with windows and a balcony. Utility poles and overhead wires are visible on the left, with other residential structures and palm trees in the background. Several indistinct figures are visible walking further down the trash-laden path in the distance.
