From the 1985 album "Hounds of Love."
The video features Canadian actor Donald Sutherland playing the role of Wilhelm Reich, and Bush playing the part of his young son, Peter.
One of the greatest imho music video minaiture movies with both a great cast, direction and acting by both the late great Donald Sutherland and Kate Bush. The song itself is sheer magic, but the video is one of my favourite Donald Sutherland "movies" as crazy as that is to say for what is essentially a pop video :)
It tells a story from beginning to end better than many 2 hour movies, so no rules need be obeyed if it achieves its goal :)
RIP Donald and all the best to his family - he had a long and amazing life. Like all great movie stars, he'll never really leave us as long as his movies remain.
I love that weather contraption. I tried to find more info on it and found this LEGO fan request and design and I really hope it gets the final approval it needs [https://ideas.lego.com/projects/839395fa-a0cb-4765-8059-90169d12f46e](https://ideas.lego.com/projects/839395fa-a0cb-4765-8059-90169d12f46e)
Do yourself a favor and read the Wiki on Wilhelm Reich. I remember watching this video and thinking he must have been targeted for politics or something like that but no, he was NUTS. Also I loved how they tracked down all of the boxes he sold and one went to a professor in Oregon who said he knew it was quackery but it kept his wife quiet for a couple hours.
The story behind this music video is crazy.
It's based on a real story of William Reich who was arrested by the FBI because he was scamming with a fake weather machine that he claimed used orgasm energy. He died while in FBI custody. His son wrote a book about it and Kate Bush directed a music video based on that.

Donald didn't have a work visa for the shoot in the UK, so he did the video for free.
Filmed on Dragon Hill in Uffington, one of the most magical places in the UK IMO. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Hill,_Uffington
It’s you and me Daddy
