Winner of a top prize at this year's prestigious Hot Docs documentary film festival, RABBIT A LA BERLIN is the surprisingly charming true story of a community of wild rabbits that found safe haven within the confines of the Berlin Wall. Protected from outside threats but also unable to escape, the rabbit community thrived in isolation for twenty-eight years.  Until the Wall came down. 2009 marks the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and to commemorate this historical event, the Hamptons is proud to present this fascinating retelling of the Berlin Wall story through unexpected eyes.
