Rabbit Fever is a 2009 documentary that is directed by Amy Do. The film follows a colorful collection of impressively competitive and undeniably quirky competitors as they strive to win the top title at the National American Rabbit Convention, an event that draws more than 20,000 rabbits in one building, the largest mass of rabbits in the world. While adult members of the rabbit habit compete for 'Best In Show,' the teenage enthusiasts quest for the even more coveted 'Rabbit King' and 'Rabbit Queen' titles.
Among the film's enthusiastic supporters is Ignatz-Award winning comics artist, Jeffrey Brown, who illustrated the movie poster. [1]
