This image depicts an outdoor cultural event in Buzove, Democratic Republic of the Congo, set on an expansive, dark dirt ground under a clear sky. A red and white striped barrier tape in the foreground separates a dense, observing crowd of approximately fifty individuals of varying ages, dressed in casual modern attire, from a performance area. In the center, three female performers are depicted in active dance. One on the left wears a blue top and a multi-patterned blue, white, and brown long skirt with white sneakers. Adjacent to her, two women are synchronized in red tops and long yellow skirts with colorful patterned hems, each with a leg raised. A pile of light-colored fibrous material, resembling raffia, and two white shoes are placed on the ground directly in front of these performers. To the right, a line of approximately ten light-colored, cylindrical wooden drums stands upright. Behind these drums, several male figures in long white robes appear prepared to play them. Further right, a male in a white shirt and dark trousers observes the scene. A dark, shallow, bowl-like object rests on the ground nearby. The background reveals sparse single-story structures, power lines, and scattered trees, with distant mountains visible on the horizon. Two prominent, tall, slender trees frame the mid-ground.
