Three passengers - a couple and a boy - standing in the airport, next to a counter for checking of baggage, in a bright environment, without people around them. Their faces are not visible. The man grabs, with his left hand, a hold suitcase with wheels, placing it on the treadmill to be weighed and checked. With the right hand, he grabs at a bar code baggage label that is attached to the suitcase. The woman holds a ticket; she and the boy wait, next to the man, for the baggage to be checked.
