Dust Bunny

_In the cramped, neon‑lit corridors of an unnamed metropolis, a ten‑year‑old girl named Aurora watches the world through a cracked doorway, her imagination turning ordinary shadows into something far more terrifying. Across the hall lives a silent, enigmatic figure—the hit‑man—who makes a living taking on odd jobs that blur the line between contract killing and monster hunting. The city itself feels like a living creature, its alleys humming with whispers of unseen dangers, while a thin veil of ordinary life masks a darker, more fantastical undercurrent.

When a tragedy shrouds Aurora’s home in mystery, she becomes convinced that a real monster has claimed her family. Driven by a blend of childlike fear and fierce determination, she seeks out the hit‑man, hoping his unusual trade might offer a solution that ordinary authorities cannot provide. The hit‑man, accustomed to navigating murky moral terrain, is initially reluctant, but a lingering sense of responsibility and the strange connection he feels to the girl stir him into action.

The film unfolds as a moody, genre‑bending tableau that mixes gritty noir aesthetics with a surreal, almost fairy‑tale sense of menace. Aurora’s wide‑eyed curiosity and the hit‑man’s stoic professionalism create a fragile partnership, each trying to understand the other’s world while the city around them pulses with hidden threats. Together they tiptoe along the edge of reality and imagination, hinting at a story where innocence confronts the monstrous, and unlikely alliances may be the only way to face what lurks beneath the streets.
