Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: urgent and instructional; themes: civil defense, preparedness, duration of isolation; style notes: graphic-heavy, minimalistic, uses symbolic imagery (mushroom cloud, calendar) with flat lighting and no live actors

A public information film advises staying indoors for 14 days after an attack and storing water and food. A calendar is shown to illustrate the duration.

“After an attack” 0:10 · “You may have to stay in your home for about 14 days.” 0:11 automatic transcript, may be wrong

The record

Crown copyright, not a US Government work. Made 1975–76 by Richard Taylor Cartoons for the Central Office of Information and the Home Office; first shown publicly in 1980. 17 U.S.C. 105 covers only works of the United States Government, so Public Reel's registry rules do not clear this film. The Imperial War Museum reproduces the series as © Crown copyright under delegated authority. The Archive uploads carry an uploader's public-domain mark, which is a claim, not a licence. The atlas indexes it because the series is a landmark of government public information film; the video stays on the Archive. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
