About this project
The furry fandom is a closely-knit network of people interested in anthropomorphic animals. Many of these people purchase or create fursuits—life-size animal costumes of their “fursonas.” The film presents four years of research into their society from the inside out. What begins as a series of humanistic portraits evolves into an exploration of the complicated question concerning community representation in the fandom.
