Who Has Seen the Wind is a 1977 Canadian drama film directed by Allan King and written by Patricia Watson.
It was the first narrative feature film ever directed by King, who was previously known primarily as a documentary filmmaker.

Although Painchaud received positive critical attention for his performance, it was the only film he ever made before his death in 1986.
The magic ends when his father (Gordon Pinsent) falls ill, and he witnesses the harsh realities of adult life.
