From the bestselling novel by Richard Adams comes an animated feature of rare beauty and emotional depth: Martin Rosen's moving and magical Watership Down. Nestled among the rolling hills and peaceful meadows of England lives a community of rabbits. When their warren is threatened, a small group of brave rabbits escapes into the unknown countryside seeking a new home. Led by the visionary Fiver, they face huge challenges and use strength and cunning to survive, while gaining new allies, battling new enemies and always pursuing their dream. Packed with suspense and excitement and featuring a splendid voice cast that includes John Hurt, Zero Mostel, Ralph Richardson and Denholm Elliott, Watership Down is "one of the best... animated features ever made" (Leonard Maltin's Video Guide).
