The untold story of wild rabbits which lived between the Berlin Wall.
For 28 years, the Death Zone was their safest home. Guards were protecting them from human disturbance. They were closed but happy. When their population grew up to thousands, guards started to remove them. But rabbits survived and stayed there.
Unfortunately, one day the Wall fell down. Rabbits had to abandon the comfortable system. They moved to West Berlin and have been living there in a few colonies since then. They are still learning how to live in the free world, like we, the citizens of Eastern Europe.
