A water canal, filled with dark liquid, possibly polluted water, runs through a landscape marred by trash and sparse vegetation. Debris clumps float on the canal's surface, and more trash litters the banks. On one side, a dirt path meets overgrown weeds. A dirt embankment rises on the opposite bank, featuring scrub and some construction materials. The shadow of a person holding a long object falls across the foreground.
