SYNOPSIS

A young woman, processing the various stages of grief brought on by a recent abortion, journeys through a mysterious forest with an unlikely companion––one with bright eyes, a bushy tail, and no discernible heartbeat. Based on the life of Mary Toft, who in 1726 participated in a string of medical hoaxes involving her supposed “birthing” of rabbits and rabbit-like pieces.
