Watership Down – 4K Restoration

Directed by Martin Rosen

This classic, distinctly beautiful British animated feature is back on the big screen again this autumn, for the first time in nearly 50 years. 

A building project threatens the tranquil lives of the wildlife residing in a British woodland area, not least the rabbits who live in one of the local warrens.

Littlest rabbit Fiver, who has a sixth sense, has distressing visions of destruction lying ahead and persuades a small group to join him on what is to be a challenging journey to safety in the halcyon location of Watership Down. 

Although hard-hitting in its depiction of survival and conflict, the film is a work of great beauty with an extraordinary voice cast.
