Is it Time to Bury Vladimir Lenin (15x4)

Air date: Sep 18, 2025

In this episode of Open Door, we step inside the brutalist Moscow home of the corpse of Vladimir Lenin. Designed in collaboration with Joseph Stalin, Lenin’s space blends city living with a touch of mold and structural issues. With pops of red (socialism’s favorite color) and numerous homages to cult of personality, the great leader's home will make you wonder, "does he even want to be here?"
