Long Ago And Far Away

 

Here's a look at China (specifically Hong Kong and Shanghai) sometime in the 1930's (likely well before the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War in July 1937).  The colorized and sound-added film is focused on the various ways human energy is involved in transport, fishing, and other endeavors.  At the very end is a brief view of an circa WWI American warship, presumably anchored near Shanghai.
