In October 2003,
at the annual Venus Fair in Berlin, "Pink Prison" was
honored with the Venus Award as Best Scandinavian Film.
The news was celebrated at Zentropa
in Copenhagen, where the kitchen staff at Filmbyen's large restaurant,
The Mess Hall, created a special "Pink Prison"-cake with
pink icing and prison bar stripes.
The cake was made
in the very same kitchen where the film's hot sexscene with Katja
Kean and Mr. Marcus was once shot.
Zentropa CEO Peter Aalbæk
Jensen happily dug into the cake,
commenting that "honor is the loveliest tree in the forest".
