An increasingly ‘hangry’ bunny discovers the tasty looking carrot he’s about to eat is not real, it’s made of paper! The little blue fella goes on an existential journey to find a ‘real’ carrot that he can gobble up. He finds a painting of a carrot, a drawing of a carrot, a carrot penned from ink - but, much to his annoyance, he struggles to find a ‘real’ carrot. He may not find the ‘real’ carrot he was looking for, but in the end he finds a reality he’s happy with!
