Stalin's Skyscraper (2005x20)

Uitzenddatum: Mei 20, 2005

This Storyville documentary explores how Stalin's interest in American skyscrapers led to the building of seven Soviet versions in Moscow. Focusing on the building where the party elite were housed, director Pavel Lounguine meets those remaining, and their descendants, who are of course reluctant to leave what's become prime real estate.
