The poster is divided into two vertical parts with different background colors—the left side is dark blue, while the right is light orange. On the left side, a large, black silhouette of a person is depicted with a target disk on their back, showing concentric circles and numbers from 1 to 10. Above the human silhouette, a bird is flying with outstretched wings. On the right side, there is a similar human silhouette, but smaller, also with a target disk on their back, and below it, another target disk on the ground. In the background, three wheels are visible, forming the place of legs. In the lower part of the poster, on the left side, there is an inscription in straight, bold letters in a dark color, while on the right side, the same inscription is in slanted, lighter letters. In the upper right corner, there is a question mark.
