Why the Rabbits Crossed the Road

Emily and Doris Rabbit make an exciting discovery. Then Toad of Toad Hall arrives in style.

This is one of a series of five short films featuring the hilarious antics of the familiar Wind in the Willows characters.

White Cobra's first venture into film making was in response to the Coronavirus pandemic when restrictions meant that planned theatre productions had to be cancelled.

Shot entirely on iPhone and GoPro, this short film was made in Northamptonshire during the summer of 2020 with a limited cast and crew and following strict social distancing rules.
