The obnoxious air pollution in Beijing, China upsets its dwellers, including Malaysian independent film director Michael Wong, but the grey layer of haze lent a natural dreamy filter to the lens when he was shooting a short film last year.

“It gave the film a nice atmospheric feel and texture. I love it! I guess that was the only moment I welcomed the pollution,” Wong, 44, joked.
