Rabbit
In this tale of lost innocence a boy and girl find an idol in the stomach of a rabbit. Its magical abilities lead to riches. The vintage children's book style is inspired by a selection of 1950s educational stickers that director Run Wrake found in a thrift store. A retro and adult fairytale.
