Watership Down
1978 · TMDB 7.2
Directed by Martin Rosen
When the warren belonging to a community of rabbits is threatened, a brave group led by Fiver, Bigwig, Blackberry and Hazel leave their homeland in a search of a safe new haven.
Why it matters
A group of rabbits flees their doomed warren and crosses a hostile English countryside in search of somewhere safe to build a new life. Martin Rosen's animation refuses to soften the book's violence, and the result has haunted generations of children.
