The Soviet system produced two unarguably good things, during the brief span of their empire - dissidents against the Soviet system, and very instructive animations about the nuclear problem.
This one is about everywhere and everybody. It's well worth a watch.
Watership Down, as the poster above has shown, is a sterling bit of work. It hurt me a lot better and closer than any other post-apocalytptic work. The folk were rabbits!

"This film is an AURORATONE created by Cecil Stokes (1910-1956) in collaboration with Bing Crosby. Mr. Stokes intended his Auroratones to serve as a visual therapy for patients with mental disorders and chronic migraines. This print was owned by my Grandfather, who probably acquired it during the 1940's while he was working as a film projectionist for various mental health institutions in the New York City area."
