About Behind Glory Wugang-Dokumentario

Ĉi tio estas fotografia dokumentario de Wugang, la Firmao de Feraj kaj Ŝtangoj de Wuhan. Apogita de la ruso kaj konstruita en 1958, la ŝtata Wugang estas unu el la plej grandaj ŝtalfabrikoj en Ĉinio kaj iam signalis la industriigon kaj modernigon de la lando. Tamen tia industrio kaŭzas severan median poluadon. Per kaptado de la tre poluita Wugang-kampuso kun malhelaj bildoj, ĉi tiu projekto rivelas la prezon pagitan kaj la konsekvencon malantaŭ la gloro de modernigo kaj ekonomia prospero, instigante la spektantojn en serĉado de pura kaj sana medio.
