The Real Thing (2018)

May 1, 2018 Documentary, TV Movie 0h 55m

Real life in fake cities

Overview

A smaller scale Eiffel Tower and the Champs-Elysées can be found just outside Shanghai; a copy of St. Peter’s in Rome can be found in Yamoussoukro, in the Ivory Coast: a journey over three continents to see the architecture of imitation, the uncanny world of the fake.
