A young adult female stands on a grey interlocking concrete block pavement in an urban area of Cotonou, Benin. She is positioned slightly right of center, facing left, with her head angled down. She wears a black fur-like hat, a short-sleeved white and black striped top, wide-leg black textured pants, and white slide sandals. Multiple necklaces, including one with a circular pendant, adorn her neck, and bracelets are visible on her right wrist. She holds a white smartphone horizontally in her left hand and gestures with her open right hand, fingers slightly splayed, palm upwards, near the phone. A yellow plastic bag hangs from her left shoulder, resting against her hip. In the background, to the left, a single-story white building with glass doors fronts an area demarcated by orange construction netting, revealing exposed earth. A large billboard on a adjacent structure displays "PARTNER 4B PARTS - FILM" and an illustration of electronic components. Behind this, a building with a light green roof is visible, along with multiple utility poles and overhead wires. To the right, a multi-story building features brown and white striped facades. A silver SUV, possibly a Toyota RAV4, is visible further down the street on the right side. The sky is overcast and grey.
