Leninland plot

In 1987, the last days of the Soviet Empire, in the village of Gorky, 20 kilometers from Moscow, on the estate where Lenin spent his last days, a large and ambitious museum was built in memory of Lenin. Shortly after the museum opens its doors, the Soviet Union collapses. Once 3000 visitors a week visited this museum, now only 20. Today the museum seems like a temple of a forgotten civilization, a place that no longer fits in time.
