The world-famous Cologne Carnival is known for its parade, which attracts more than a milion visitors, as well as its carnival sessions in brightly lit halls. But the festival is celebrated across all parts of the Cologne society – even in jail. At a carnival party at the JVA Ossendorf, female prisoners celebrate behind bars and escape from the daily prison life for a few hours of Rhinish cheerfulness, exuberance and fun. Personal project.
