The Pulse Beneath the Steel (2025)
Once the beating heart of Beijing’s steel industry, Shougang was a leviathan forged from iron and fire. Its blast furnaces once echoed with labour and ambition, embodying the raw force of China’s industrial might. Today, these same structures are repurposed into spaces of digital innovation and Olympic legacy, marking one of the most ambitious urban transformations in modern China. This documentary traces the metamorphosis of Shougang Park through three poetic chapters: its industrial past, the deliberate reinvention of its architecture, and its re-emergence as a tech-driven ecosystem. Through immersive visuals and the voices of those who once toiled within its furnaces and those now forging its future, The Pulse Beneath the Steel is more than a portrait of place. It is a meditation on memory and transformation at the heart of a city that bridges heritage and modernity.
