Depressingly tragic, yet also tragically humorous. To place so much faith in a system and a state which wouldn't exist after the nuclear holocaust they survived.

A haunting little movie about Nuclear holocausts in the face of the people. There are no other people in this movie but this couple; they are not geniuses, they are not cynics, they are not superhuman. This is to reinforce that they can be anyone, we are this couple essentially. Also, it combines both traditional animation and real-world backgrounds. A great movie but also quite a downer, so be warned by the realistic depiction of nuclear contamination.

Awesome, deeply moving animation reflecting cold war Britain and the results of nuclear war upon a retired couple. Truly moving.

so sad. sweet elderly couple who have no understanding of how bleak the world has become after a nuclear war:(. Heart breaking scenes with fitting music.

Few animated films can bring the emotional impact necessary to generate empathy with the audience. Fortunately the subject matter & voice characterizations of 'When the Wind Blows' are so powerful the viewer is reduced to tears by the final moments. Watching a retired couple attempt to understand why the recent nuclear war is so radically different from any previous wars they've endured by reading government-issued pamphlets creates a sense of despair rarely achieved in cinema. Both live sets and animation are utilized to create the sense of place, and incidental music by Roger Waters provides a sweet-yet-sad tone throughout the picture. 'When the Wind Blows' conveys its message more effectively than any other post-apocalyptic story available, and is the sort of film which should be shown to everyone in the hopes that it will encourage a more peaceful future.
