About Behind Glory En Wugang-dokumentar

Dette er en fotografisk dokumentar om Wugang, Wuhan Iron and Steel Company. Støttet av Russland og bygget i 1958, er det statseide Wugang ett av de største stålverkene i Kina og representerte en gang landets industrialisering og modernisering. Imidlertid forårsaker slik industri alvorlig miljøforurensning. Gjennom å fange det sterkt forurensede Wugang-området med dystre bilder avslører dette prosjektet prisen som er betalt og konsekvensene bak moderniseringens og den økonomiske velstandens glans, og provoserer betrakterne til å søke etter et rent og sunt miljø.
