The story of Rabbit Hash, for that is what this film is really about, unfolds through the narrative of the residents of the area. This town near Cincinnati sits on the banks of the Ohio River, which rolls lazily through the film from time to time, ever a reminder of why people would have settled here in the first place. The name of the town came after a particularly aggressive flood drove bunny after bunny out of their burrows, up the hill, and into the waiting fry pans of hungry settlers. The residents today have all the temerity of their forbearers, even developing hinge systems to hold the buildings to their foundations in the inevitable event of flood. It is the attitude of the locals that makes this film as appealing as it is.
