A Short Vision (1956) | BFI National Archive
Subscribe: http://bit.ly/subscribetotheBFI
This short animated film is Peter and Joan Foldes’ second and last film together. Its bleak subject – the end of the world caused by a nuclear apocalypse – reflects a widespread preoccupation in 50s Britain which would soon lead to the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). The film is composed mostly of still drawings, creating a terrifying effect amplified by a sombre commentary spoken in the style of the Bible. The film had a very strong impact on audiences, in particular across the Atlantic, where it was shown on primetime television to millions of American viewers and reportedly produced one of the biggest reactions since Orson Welles’ ‘War of the Worlds’ broadcast in 1938.

The Hiroshima Bomb was dropped at 8:15 AM. The Nagasaki bomb was dropped somewhat around 11am. Is this video based on factual evidence? Cus I’m sure both bombs didn’t happened at midnight
Why was this important short given an X certificate in the UK for Adults Only ( no one under 16 admitted ) How educational it could have been for 14 to 15 year olds in 1956!!! And the censors gave ' On the Beach ' ( really disturbing ) with an A certificate ( children admitted with adults. )
“When it flew over the mountains, the leopard looked up, and the dear darted free from the tearing claws, and they both hid in fear. When it flew over the fields, the owl looked up, and the rat ran free from the clutching claws, and they both hid in fear.”
This is horrifyingly beautiful, wow
Mmm love me some cosmic horror with beautifully crafted visuals ✨️

This can be hiroshima or nagasaki this bomb destroyed japan empire so they retreated
So…how many megatons was this weapon?
Well damn
Prepare for nuclear attack
Dropped from Enola, a city erased, threat of the future displayed
A power unheard of a power unseen
Flash out of nowhere, the sky is burning
At 8:16 AM Tokyo control realized something was wrong
Reports of explosions, destruction and pain
Air raid from hell city gone in a blaze
August in black, B-29s coming back
Prepare for nuclear attack
Warned but did not heed
Prepare for nuclear attack
Extermination
Strike back
Chose not to believe
Another nuclear attack
From the southeast came the second attack, threat of tomorrow unveiled
11:02 on the 9th of August
Over the valley, like ball lightning
The bomb detonates and the land turns to waste, barren for decades to come
The factories burning, the steelworks destroyed
Surrender your war else you’ll perish in flames
Second attack, B-29s turning back.
I will get nightmares of this
The flame depicts 666 at around 5:17. Most likely symbolism of a gross shortcoming and failure, also evil.
The music gives me chills especially the one at 2:16
me after I drop an atom splitting ratio:
The man melting away has always made me think of the face melted nazi in raiders of the lost ark! LOL. only thing is, his eyes didn’t explode.
Fear and death are panoramas of life and faith.
Sheesh. Here from instagram. Tough watch.
New Dark Souls trailer looking fire!

No less than Hitler's Genocide of the Jews.
They got that goofy ahh 1999 Music
The US and partners in terror knew well how the bomb fire, made eyes explode and all life disappear, just because they did it twice in Japan.

This is like a warning what will happen when the aliens stop the experiment with us
“When it flew over the mountains, the leopard looked up, and the dear darted free from the tearing claws, and they both hid in fear. When it flew over the fields, the owl looked up, and the rat ran free from the clutching claws, and they both hid in fear.”
That's what this part is reminding me of an upcoming video I'm making.! (at 3:45)
this is nightmare fuel
Amazing, yet I'm quite happy I didn't see this as a kid. Nightmares would have been intense.
