Captain Carnival

Since 150 years, the giant allegoric carnival floats of Viareggio, Tuscany, parade along the promenade, higher than the highest art nouveau buildings of the city. In the Covid-19 age, the carristi appear just like captains of a ship - the float - that must be brought at all costs, and maybe for the last time, to destination. And no one remembers why.
