The story

What Is Bunny About?

The premise of Bunny without spoilers. The whole story is in the plot summary further down.

Elderly rabbit Bunny, who uses a walker, is baking a cake at night in her kitchen, a wedding‑day photograph hanging on the wall. A persistent moth buzzes around; she shooes it out, turns off the porch light, and returns to her work. The moth slips back in, she bats it with a wooden spoon and it lands in the batter. After mixing and pouring the batter into a pan, she slides it into the oven, but the moth transforms the oven into a portal, beckoning Bunny on a voyage of reunion.

Spoilers ahead

In a remote forest, Bosmuend Pike voices Bunny, an elderly rabbit who lives alone in a small cabin tucked among pines and quiet snow. Her days are simple, marked by the steady rhythm of baking and the soft creak of the cabin, yet a sense of loneliness hums beneath the routine. One night, a large moth becomes a persistent visitor, buzzing relentlessly around the kitchen as Bunny works on a cake, its flight tracing little circles in the warm air.
