In New Zealand, Bunny King (Essie Davis) is a struggling single mother living in poverty. Her two kids are stuck in foster care. She needs to find a home before she has a chance to get them back. She lives with her sister's family until she finds her niece Tonyah (Thomasin McKenzie) being abused by her stepdad.
Rooting for Bunny can be tough with her self-destructive nature. I like her character, but her manic personality can be a bit much sometimes. She would be a lot easier to root for if she doesn't keep getting into her own way. I do like her with Tonyah, but more can be done with that story. The very last scene is a bit problematic. It's a continuation of Bunny's chaotic ways. I'd rather she deal with her problem head on.
