Moscow Underground
The descent into Moscow’s underworld – a labrynth of stations and tunnels beneath the city. The escalator going down into the bowells of the earth, deep enough to survive a nuclear attack. At the bottom, huge, thick sliding iron doors waiting to be activated that will seal off the occupants from the blast and radiation. One has to assume they still work and are regularly tested. The threat of first-strike capability ever-present on their mind, and makes up part of their psyche and view of the West.
