The Death of Bunny Munro

Synopsis

After his wife, Libby, dies by suicide, sex-addicted door-to-door beauty product salesman and self-professed lothario Bunny Munro finds himself saddled with a young son and only a loose concept of parenting. Together with 9-year-old Bunny Junior he embarks on an epic and increasingly out-of-control road trip across Southern England as the two struggle to contain their grief in very different ways.
As Bunny bounces from one sales pitch to the next, trying to seduce any woman he meets, Bunny Junior kills time talking to the ghost of his mother and distracting himself from the dawning realization that his dad isn’t just fallible - he’s a complete mess.
As he starts to unravel, Bunny realizes he must do something to rescue his son from his own outdated notions of what it is to be a man.

Now, feeling his time on Earth is running out, he summons his sons to be with him. When they arrive, he tells them something so unbelievable it couldn’t possibly be true. Or could it?
