WORLD PREMIERE Bunny Yeager was a trailblazing model, designer, and photographer who popularized the bikini, invented the selfie, discovered Bettie Page, and introduced feminist agency in sexy pictures in the ’50s. With the testimonies of cultural icons that include photographer Bruce Weber, Dita Von Teese, and Larry King, the film reinstates Bunny as an iconic artist as well as portraying the evolution of women’s autonomy in postwar America through the use of her extraordinary archive. – Ruth Somalo
