This image depicts an indoor industrial processing area in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Five adult males are present within the scene. On the left, a man in a light green traditional garment and brown sandals sits on a stack of approximately eight white sacks. In the central mid-ground, a man with a long dark beard and dark clothing, including a dark head covering, observes two large, dark metal cauldrons from which significant white steam is actively rising. A metal lid is partially placed on the front cauldron, which is connected by a metal handle to a heavy chain. Above these cauldrons, a rudimentary industrial hoist system is constructed on a red metal frame, featuring pulleys, belts, an electric motor, and an orange pulley block with a long chain and a large hook positioned directly over the steaming vessels. Three additional men in light-colored traditional attire are partially visible standing near the hoist system, observing the operation. Below the cauldrons, a floor-level trough or drainage system is visible. To the right, a blue industrial motor or pump is present on the floor, alongside several clear plastic bottles, one containing a light blue funnel. The room features unpainted concrete walls, a darker concrete floor, and is illuminated by a bright LED light bulb hanging from above on the right side.
