- Synopsis
- Blanche Lake, a single mother who has just moved to the city, leaves her four-year-old daughter Bunny at nursery school for the first time. When Blanche returns to the school from work that afternoon, there is no sign of Bunny. Furthermore, no one at the school remembers having seen the child there. The police are helpful at first but soon they suspect that Bunny does not exist and that Blanche is mentally ill. Every time Blanche tries to produce evidence of Bunny's existence she cannot find it, or it is of no use. Psychiatrist Dennis Newhouse, the lover of the woman who runs the nursery school, attempts to show Blanche that Bunny is not real, but he finds himself falling in love with the distraught mother. Meantime, suspects and odd characters abound. An over-the-hill writer, an adolescent stalker, Bunny's absent grandmother, the proprietor of a doll hospital, and employees of the nursery school all influence Blanche's frantic, determined search for good or ill. Alone and beleaguered, she must depend on her mother love and her own wits as she risks everything to bring Bunny home.
