A beauty pageant is in progress indoors. Approximately 20 young women stand shoulder to shoulder on a red-carpeted stage, facing the camera. Each woman holds a red rose. They are wearing short sequined or glittery dresses in shades of gold, silver, and white, and most are wearing heels. Several of them have sashes with writing on them. As the camera zooms out, the setting is revealed as a stage with a backdrop of white draped fabric, floral arrangements, and uplighting. A person in the middle of the group wears a red gown, a crown, and a sash that reads “Miss Denmark 2023”. People in the audience are holding up phones to record the event. The lighting in the hall is bright from stage lights. Overhead, the ceiling structure is visible with track lighting.
