The film follows a ten-year-old boy whom everyone calls Bunny. He is emotional and reserved, and he spends most of his days playing with his only friend Edvards. Bunny’s life is shaken by his Mom’s new boyfriend Juris. The film depicts the pre-puberty boys’ awkward understanding of sexual intercourse and also tells the story of the relationship between a single mother and her son, seeking for a way to turn an uncomfortable experience into an opportunity to mature.

Directed by Mārtiņš Gaušis, Bunny leans on a strong ensemble — Marts Mālderis, Marta Grase, Ivars Krasts — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2019.
