Bunny- a short film

2-4
Bunny is a short film on the journey to the afterlife where an act of vengeance turns to an act of deliverance to the transcendent. In this “white light” that entrances Bunny to climb inside an oven is the question I raise; what is in this vision of death?
I am passionate about music. In almost all situations I bring a quote from a song to mind; I am a music quote junkie. When watching this film, two relatable song quotes that are rich with religious context and are great topics for discussion were recalled to memory. The artist Brand New, one of my high school favorites, explains their ideas on what happens in their song “Jesus Christ” concerning the moment of passing and questions of death:

“Well, Jesus Christ I’m not scared to die
I’m a little bit scared of what comes after.
Do I get the gold chariot?
Do I float through the ceiling?
Do I divide and fall apart?
Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark.”

Not much speaks more clearly to me than the first two lines of those lyrics. In addition, the artist Iron & Wine in their song “Trapeze Swinger” paint the afterlife from their eyes. This quote is more reflective of the arrival at heaven:

“And then, they went on to say
That the pearly gates had some eloquent graffiti.
Like 'we'll meet again,'
And 'fuck the man,'
And 'tell my mother not to worry,'
And angels with their gray handshakes…
We’re always done in such a hurry.”

Since the first experience with this song I have since then envisioned heaven to look like this battered wall of expression. The question I would like to bring to discussion is:

1. A comparison of these three visions of what the afterlife would be

2. How congruent they are to your own?
