Commissioned by the United Nations, The Doomsday Clock aims to convey the importance of multi-lateral nuclear disarmament, apolitically and without dialogue. The animation illustrates the consequences of nuclear escalation, including leaders locked in mutual mistrust, a nuclear winter, and the omnipresent skeletal spectre of war.
