I watched a video but can not remember who it was by or the name of the song
In the video it is black and white and starts in a school with children putting on big coats and gloves, then they start to put on old gas masks and went outside, ones outside they play in a playground but ash is falling from the sky and it looks like there has been a war, the video ends with one of the children removing there mask, I know the videon sounds dark but the song is just so amazing and is almost folk ish, but what I remember of it it is not in english and it reminds me a little bit of Sigur ros,
Please help I have spent many nights trying to find theis on the internet and I am starting to go mad
Thanks

I could not find the music video, but I found this --

From Wikipedia --

Directed by Floria Sigismondi, the music video shows a post-apocalyptic world in which children, attending school, get ready to go outside and play. The children, after having their ears and mouths inspected by the faculty, putting on many layers of clothes as well as ominous gas-masks, exit the school building and emerge to a yard covered in black ash, which falls from the sky like snow. The children play in the ash, throwing it at one another and making snowmen out of it as well as roughhousing with each other, causing one of the kids to lose her gas mask. Her classmates gather around her as she falls to the ground and eventually closes her eyes. The video won the "Best Video" award at the 2003 MTV Europe Music Awards in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The song is also used extensively in the film After the Wedding.
