The following images were sourced over the years from a recycling zone in the outskirts of Beijing. We scanned more than half a million 35mm colour film negatives. Those negatives build up a portrait of the capital city and the life of her inhabitants over the last thirty years. Here, we selected 3000 photos to create the animation you are about to see.
