Take Me to Your Leader

Description

How will the White House fall in a post-apocalyptic world? The greatest homes and monuments to the world's leaders are under attack from nature. This documentary looks at how long architecture and construction materials will last before disintegrating. Buildings include Grant’s Tomb, the White House, the United Nations, Monticello, Versailles, and the Forbidden Palace. Hunter’s Point Naval Base in San Francisco offers a glimpse of future decay while Mao Zedong’s embalmed corpse may continue to defy biology.
