Inside Moscow 1978: The Crumbling Walls and the Hidden Truth

Inside Moscow 1978: The Crumbling Walls and the Hidden Truth In 1978, as Moscow rushed to prepare for the 1980 Olympics, a quiet catastrophe was unfolding across the city's skyline. While the Soviet government promised a new era of "improved" housing, structural engineers were uncovering a terrifying reality: the new high-rise apartments were rotting from the inside out. This documentary investigation exposes the deep-seated corruption, material theft, and institutional lies that turned the Soviet dream of modern housing into a crumbling nightmare. From concrete mixed with river sand to save money, to the "tufta" reports that hid dangerous defects, we reveal how the pressure of the Command Economy created buildings that were programmed to fail. In this video, you will discover: The "Sand-Concrete" scandal: How theft turned load-bearing walls into dust. The "Falling Tile" phenomenon that made walking in Moscow a deadly hazard. The dark truth behind the "Cold Bridges" and freezing apartments of the 1980s. How the 1980 Olympics sucked the construction sector dry, leaving ordinary citizens with the dregs. The story of the "Limitchiki"—the exploited workers who built a city they weren't allowed to live in. Join us as we peel back the facade of the Brezhnev era to reveal the rusting skeleton of the Soviet superpower.
