Reviews

From its origins as a nerdy subculture that met at sci-fi cons to its current huge fandom with multiple enormous cons around the world, enormous charity outreach, and family-like community, the furry fandom is lovingly archived in this informative doc. Good production values, and interviews with some of the important names in early furry, along with some very interesting current makers and showrunners keeps things moving along nicely. If you're already in the furry fandom, you may already be aware of much of this, but if you're an outsider looking in, it gives a clear window into what makes the community tick. Also, for people inside the fandom that are afraid or uncertain how to explain it to people around you, this would serve as a comfortable and illuminating first step into what makes the fandom an unique and welcoming space. There's some talk about the early struggles with the media and the negative coverage the fandom received, as well as some talk about the (gasp!) sex that might be happening! As a piece of media by furries looking inward, it feels like a new lens on a topic that has been done to varying levels of success from the outside. There are maybe some points missing from the overall picture, but with a topic this big, it's impossible to cover everything in a single feature length doc.
