The Rabbit Hunt

Made in Texas: Tribute to Austin Film Society 2018 / The Rabbit Hunt / USA 2017

Austin-based artists and filmmakers Patrick Bresnan and Ivete Lucas join forces to make remarkably cinematic, thickly atmospheric non-fiction films. Over several years they have focused on the residents of an old sugar cane plantation town in Florida where isolation and poverty exist alongside resilience, community, and creativity. This short film explores the local practice of rabbit hunting.

This short film, one of several made in the town, explores the local practice of rabbit hunting.
