CGI Short Film Tells a Twisted Tale of Animal Love

Five French film students weave a tale of forbidden—perhaps even unnatural—love in 'Chaude Lapin' (Hot Rabbit).
Screencaps via

A snake, a boar, and a hare get into a hairy situation in a new animated short by a group of students graduating from the Supinfocom animation school in Arles, France. The five-minute film, Chaud Lapin (Hot Rabbit), is devoid of dialogue, but the characters' wants and desires become evident as they navigate the choppier seas of a strange love triangle—with a torrid twist. The directing team of Géraldine Gaston, Alexis Magaud, Flora Andrivon, Maël Berreur, and Soline Bejuy have something special in their ability to a story while incorporate interesting visual elements that fly in the face of everything science has taught us about nature. Watch Chaud Lapin in full below.
