Watership Down is a 1978 British animated film directed by Martin Rosen, adapted from Richard Adams's 1972 novel, following a group of rabbits who flee the destruction of their warren in search of a new home while facing predators, hostile rival warrens and the constant threat of death along the way. The film paired a premise and marketing aimed partly at younger audiences with unusually graphic violence and mature themes for an animated feature of its era, drawing both critical acclaim and public debate over its intensity. Watership Down is widely regarded as one of the more distinctive and unusually mature entries in British feature animation.
