Several prisoners are accommodated in one barrack. The prisoners are tasked with the cleaning of these barracks.

Surrounding areas of the jail remain unusually silent, at all times.

The jail officers and staff are always prepared for the arrival of prisoners so that no paper or legal work is missed.
