This honestly seems like something that would be showing at a cinema. With the skill and absolute professionalism I just think this is gonna look amazing.🤯
I wouldn't be surpsied if it did come out in theaters. I've seen a documentary in theaters before. It was called, "Meet the Mormons". When I was littler, my Mom dragged me to it because we were, and still are, LDS. If that was able to reach cinemas, I would imagine this would be able to as well.
This truly brought tears to my eyes, and its something we need for people to know who are either curious about the fandom, or have no idea what a furry is. I joined because, I felt alone and by myself. Because of the fandom and the wonderful people in it, it's helped me with a roof over my head, job opportunities, so many friends and just so many good experiences. I daresay, we're not a fandom but a family, and the experiences we'll have will last a lifetime. Thank you for making this documentary.
Your work is a vital piece for make a change in the community nowadays . Hope this go far and i really love what you did in this documentary. The best vibes and support from México!!!
The fandom is my home too. It’s where I have friends and feel cared for, when I don’t have many friends in reality, I have many in the fandom, just haven’t met them in person yet although I will someday.
I had no idea about the negativity the fandom is getting It hurt to see and hear that we get so much hatrid I will stand proud as a furry and I will fight to help others
Are you completely oblivious to the heavy, ongoing sexual component to the fandom? As somebody who had first-hand experience with the furry community, I feel ashamed staying on board.
I know. Because if how bad the hate has gotten, I decided to leave the fandom. It's been a year since I left. I really miss it, though. So much, in fact, that whenever I see a furry video, especially one of a Dutch Angel Dragon, since my fursona was a Dutch Angel Dragon, I'm ALWAYS on the verge of tears. A couple of times I'm still trying to figure out whether I should rejoin it or stay away. My mom says I should do whatever feels right out of the two, but my grandma says that it would be best if I stay away from it, so I don't know what to do. If the hate hadn't gotten this bad, I wouldn't have been in this whole mess.

I was in the darkest part of my life, substance abuse, depression, i hated myself for so long and finding the furry fandom changed my life and now ive been a fur for about 5 years now and i no longer hate my life, i have the best friends ive ever had and its all thanks to being a part of this amazing community.
I thank God for the first furries who made this fandom. The Furry Fandom saved me from myself. It was furries who treated me with kindness and love. I had complete strangers step into my life and talk me out of my darkest moments and watched out for me
This. This literally made me tear up when he said I’m home I felt that. The community has such an overwhelming amount of such wonderful people and I’m truly thankful that I’m apart of it
I cannot express how wonderful this fandom is. I don't see how other's can put down such wonderful loving and open minded individuals like yourself's. It's just UN-believable. As for myself I have been watching many fantastic videos about your guy's conventions through a multitude of posted online videos. And I have nothing against what you guys are for I am with you in your creativity,imagination and positive influence in our world. :) God bless to the furry fandom.
The world dearly needed this documentary! It's so hard to explain the furry fandom to normal people that don't understand the concept, depth or fantasy that creates the fandom and the many reasons why so many unique and talented people are part of it, how can you explain something that means so much to yourself with words alone? So many normal people have the wrong impression of the fandom to begin with because of media BS but I feel like this documentary will be so honestly informative that watching this will finally help -everyone- understand what the furry fandom is really about, one can hope anyway. Fetishes are part of every fandom but the furry fandom is about so much more. Just this trailer alone made me tear up with so much feels! I can't wait for it's full release! ^~^
as open as the fandom claims to be, i’ve been bullied relentlessly. more so than welcomed &/or inviting. idk. but my heart still goes to the fandom nonetheless.
Wish this wasn't the case, but it really is that way Wish the vocal majority of the fandom would actually kick the bullies out, but then the bullies suddenly become crybullies, and feign for sympathy. Then all of a sudden, the victims are the bad guys.
Same. A lot of them were open minded until they discovered I had conservative beliefs. Most seem to be only open minded to those they already agree with :|
Stella Lupus Maybe it's not simply cause you're conservative. Maybe it's cause you really do have beliefs that harm others On the other hand, they may be overreacting Unless we have the whole story, don't gaslight cause that's just wrong no matter who does it.
You have captured a very professional and polished Documentary style through the storytelling of this trailer alone. I can't wait to see how the rest of the film will turn out! Congrats on your work!
Got to the end of the trailer with many tears in my eyes. Thank you all, you incredibly amazing people. It was over 20 years ago, that I first started seeing the fandom existed, though I would not come to realize just how much I belonged in such a wonderful group until about 9 years ago. It was through the fandom that I was able to gain so much more confidence in myself. Not just with my art, but as a human being. No I don't have a fursuit, many things keep me from being able to have a beautiful mascot suit of my own, as much as I would love to bring smiles to children's faces, and all who need a smile. I realized I truly was NOT alone in my struggles. I suffer with PTSD, and the anxiety/depression that goes along with it. I felt lost and alone for so many years. Yes I had friends and family, and some of them were simply amazing. But when I joined the fandom, I met SO many more who struggled with very similar things as I do. I connected on a deeper level than I ever dreamed possible. And it was through the fandom that I met my absolute best friend in the world, Paige. Though we are on opposite sides of the pond so to speak (she UK while I am east coast US) my love for her as a friend, as family, could not be stronger. And we have been through SO much in our lives. And the past few years of knowing each other, we have shared laughter, our pains, our sorrows, our joys, our struggles, our fears, our hopes and dreams. I no longer felt alone. A great deal of people out there think that just because you have family, a partner, kids, that you should feel life is complete. Sometimes... life can be so much more complicated than that. Yes you are so grateful, blessed and happy for it, but sometimes, there are things in your mind, in your life that is so much harder to share with those you love than it is with people you've never met prior to a fandom. I have met so many people, of all different walks of life since discovering this fandom. We are there for each other. You can pour your heart out to the world, your struggles, fears, loneliness, or even something in your life that is finally going RIGHT for what seems like the first time, and many times there will always be at least one stranger that replys with heartfelt words, sympathy, empathy, or encouragement. I have found it to be such a loving community of vastly talented artists of many, many types. I have seen sculptors, painters, metalworkers, leatherworkers, costume makers, singers, musicians, glassblowers, blacksmiths, woodshapers, carpenters, animators, writers. I have seen everything from aspiring artist/musician/writer/crafter, to just your average every day person trying to make their way in the world, who might feel alone and is reaching out to the community to feel less so in this vast world. There are so many loving, amazingly accepting people in this fandom, and it is mind boggling just how much a difference a few strangers can make in your life until it happens. Without the amazing people I have met in the fandom, well, my life might be different. SO many things in my life have contributed to bringing me where I am today, and the fandom is most certainly one of them! The best thing about this fandom, is the love and support you can find from SO MANY. Yes, there will always be drama here or there, haters and trolls are everywhere in every fandom and every corner of the world in every day life. But there is also a huge neverending support system that helps each other get through their day to day life journeys. I am so HAPPY. So GRATEFUL. Incredibly BLESSED, to have met so many amazing people. So many have been with me on my journey the past few hard years. They have been there to support me. Encourage me. Reach out to me and my family. And I have never felt so darn loved and accepted. Many of these strangers, have helped me in ways I could not have dreamed possible before coming into the fandom. They have helped me; take a deep breath and reconnect with friends and family (and continue to try and do so) helped encourage me to better communicate with others (I have become better at socializing in the world with other people because of this) They have helped me work through grief, loss, and fear. And I went from an 8 year art block to gaining confidence in my artistic capabilities and slowly but surely flourishing in my ability to keep going with it despite any self doubt or fear I have, because these amazing strangers in this community (as well as real life connections) kept encouraging me to keep going. The list goes ON and ON and it would take me years to write all of this down. I am so HAPPY. I love this amazing fandom and will continue to do so until the end of this mortal life and the next. You are all amazing! I know life has been far less than kind to many of you, but please remember you are not alone, not truly. Many of us have shared your pain, or sorrows similar to your own. We know how hard it can be. But we also know first hand how amazing it is to be reached out to by even one person that shows love, care, compassion, and concern. Keep going strong my lovelies! I am here! I have come so far and struggled through so much but I am here!
I'm so excited for this- I almost let out a cry Thank you to everyone who are putting the work and participating into making this documentary! I'm hoping it'll change a lot of minds.
I am so thrilled for this!!! I've been craving more furry documentaries that go over the historical beats and that are made with heartfelt love. I'm so excited!
i’m not even a furry but this community gets way too much bad publicity.. y’all are wonderful. what you do makes me happy. don’t listen to people who try and bring you down
In the end this trailer took my heart, it's very loving to see how much the fandom has grown in over 30 years. Congrats to the young & old furs out there joining the fandom, hope this made your day :)
'im home im finally home',, made me borderline cry. i can relate to this is in so many levels, i finally found myself and things i love because of this fantastic community ❤️❤️. amazing just amazing
If this comes out on Netflix, in no particular order 1. I'm gonna cry 2. Opinions will be changed 3. Furries will be more accepted 4. More people will find the fandom 5. People who are on the fence and worried about being a furry ( like I was at one point) will be able to take that step into the fandom 6. This documentary alone will spark more interest and research on the fandom 7. Furries will be made (like legit I can imagine someone being bored one day browsing Netflix and picking this documentary for no particular reason and then being like "hey that's neat" before slowly learning more and becoming a part of the fandom) 8. Just raise awareness (rather you'll see this or not Ash the fandom is at an all time high acceptance wise because of people like you raising awareness.) With lots of love Phoenix wolf the semi closet furry🤗🐺
I appreciate that you take a look back at the roots. I miss a lot of the 90's furry artists. Most were cool people and I still like a lot of their art.
THIS... THIS... THIS *points to the video* is what I'm talking about! It actually brought a tear to my eye knowing that someone has put their heart and hard work into creating this film about our beloved fandom. Been in the fandom for 23 years and I'll never leave it behind no matter what. Thank you so much for creating this film! I will surely be there when it becomes available
I am already waiting for the documentary to be released. I hope that this wonderful documentary will be released on Netflix worldwide. This documentary will be heart-touching.
Finally a documentary that puts furries under a new light. For years, everyone has assumed this was a place that is bad, sexualize, and only cares about mature content. I know this documentary will not change the mindset of people who dislikes the furries, but it will at least give new people an understanding of what and who we are. This is saying, "We're are furries and we're here to stay".
I used to think that but I had a friend who transitioned into a furry so I started to understand the whole fandom thing, and now I don't mind. I'm not a furry nor a hater.
It’s crazy when I hear that some people view the fandom as only a fetish. It’s honestly gross especially when it’s taken too far. My idea of being a furry is the general definition plus wanting to make children and everyone happy by having a big colorful creature come and brighten your day like a real imaginary friend!
This looks like its gonna be awesome. The fandom helped me find self worth and helped me unlock hidden talents I wouldnt have tried otherwise. I started off as a quiet, bullied down artist, lonely, and without a real goal, now I'm a suit maker, surrounded by lots of new friends and a loyal family of my own to back me up. I was on the fringe from 2010-2017, now I'm fully involved and really happy. The fandom does mean a lot.
Damn! This looks good both from a furry and video producer standpoints. It helps express the general origin, what it came to be, what’s happen (both good and bad) since then, and where it’s going to be. Not only that, but the shots were lined up well with the grid by putting your main focus person at those points. One day I hope to do stuff like this
they only thing i can say is this means a lot to me,this means a lot for other people and i just want to see other people been there selfs and i just...i love the fandom so much 💛
I'm not a furry, but have deep respect for these guys and really would like to know more about them Edit: Met some fursuit folks a few months ago, were the most friendly people I've ever met
im fucking looking at you bitch porn appears in any fandom you see on the internet. LITERALLY ANY. People are just seeing the porn side of furries. There are lots of character designs, comics and animations that are amazing
Being a veteran I know how it feels to be alone, forgotten, thrown aside, discarded, and in other words left to rot. I’ve lost brothers and sisters in arms. 3 of which where close to me, but sadly passed by an I.E.D (improvised Explosive Device). I survived with sever damage to my left leg, and when the military forced me out I’ve never felt more alone. I declared myself a furry while I was in the military, and despite the image the media tried to display as our standard. I was still proud. After I was practically thrown aside I was borderline on taking my life, I’ve put a gun to my head more times than I care to count, but I could say TH-cam saved my life, or better yet the fandom has. I went to my first convention and never have I felt so welcome, so at home, and so at piece with myself that I thought I could never achieve after being so broken. I love being a furry and a veteran, and I will support my country and my fandom till the day I die. Thank all of you for being who you are!
And thank you for being who YOU are! Thank you for your courage, both in the military and afterwards. I hope our paths will cross at a convention someday (I won't be at MFF this weekend, but I will be at Furthemore in the spring and def'ly Anthrocon in July) so I can meet you and (if you're receptive) give you a big hug!
I'm not even joking this brought two tears to my eyes. I'm so happy that this sort of thing exists. I am so happy that humans have found a way to spice up life and help each other cope with whatever in such a positive and beautiful and creative way. I hope the furry fandom never dies.💌
I used to hate furries. I used to think they were weird, nasty, fetish-based freaks who had no lives. That was my opinion for ages. But over time I've come to know people who are furries and I've made great friends with a load of them. I've realised they're NOT horrible! They're GREAT! Never have I seen so many people supporting each other, socialising, being so incredibly creative, showing skills and being so accepting! It's so incredible to see how brave these guys are to express themselves in a wonderfully creative way that really makes them happy. These people are some of the most open-minded, kind and supportive people I have ever met and I'm so glad I realised. I'm just sad I couldn't have seen it sooner. I hope this documentary opens some minds and helps people who still have the opinion I had to realise that these people are not monsters - they are amazing.
It helps people understand so people who hear furry would laugh before watching this film and after watching it they realize and it's a no laugh but hmm interesting I say the Fandom is very peaceful and no negativity
So many times, a negative piece of media comes out, and we look at each other and ask, "Why is it always someone *else* talking about us? Trying to trick us into saying something that fits their preconceived notions, their already-written narrative?" "We're a fandom of artists, of creators, of musicians, of filmmakers - why can't we do this better ourselves?" ...and then you came along to take up that mantle. If this is anything to go by, I don't regret backing you all on Kickstarter. There'll be people nitpicking. Yeah, there'll be people who will have issues that this exists at all, wishing to 'put the genie back in the bottle', so to speak. But if the existence of a positive documentary like this means that more people find the fandom, find the positivity, find that communal sense of home, no matter their age, religion, gender identity, physical ability, sexuality, or any other myriad of things that other groups discriminate on? Then it's all worth it. Thank you.
This is legit, what I wanted to hear. I myself is apart if the furry fandom, but yet I don’t get that much hate as much as others do in other community’s. I’ve received admiration, and friends I can connect to, friend id never thought I would meet. My fursona, is an expressive way to show who I am across the world. It’s a great way I’ve discovered myself, through the fnaf community, from the motivation and inspiration I’ve developed from other animators and fur suitors up till this point. I can actually have the confidence to be out there, to show everyone that I, ambershade who was once an animator on the youtube platform is a furry, a proud aspect in the furry community, who comes here with open arms to anyone who might cross that path.
This is absolutely stunning! I’d be so happy to see this on Netflix as I could finally show my family and friends what it’s really like and how this community works! Amazing work 💙💜
This right here. Gives me a great relief that this fandom that I have joined is not all bad and wrong. I will continue to get past the negative and keep going forward.
"It's not just about the animal characters, it's about the people" *wanting to make a communist joke whilst on the verge of tears from how amazing this will be*
Every time it goes directly into my feelings I cry everytime at the end when he say "I'm home... I'm finally home" because this is what I tought when I joined the fandom.
ive just joined the furry fandom, literally less than a week ago and its overwhelming, but this video.. i really think this video is gonna help me along the way and i hope this will help other new furries.
Honestly, this looks amazing!! I really hope it highlights the good and the bad of the fandom though, along with the truth about our fandom. I wish you all luck with this, it looks amazing!
Seeing this has made me so happy! The Fandom has helped so many people whether it be coming out or something else, and everyone in our Fandom are wonderful people and the Fandom as a whole deserves to be seen as it is, a friend group, a family, a pack
It’s pretty true what you guys have explained in this video. My friends have gave me a bad image of the furry fandom and I’m not a furry which gave me an even more bad image of the furry fandom. And I regret all those bad thoughts and I respect your fandom. You guys are people and you guys have your own hobbies and passions so I am going to respect your fandom and your passions. 👍👍

“I’m home, I’m finally home” so inspirational and touching ☺️❤️
as open as the fandom claims to be, i’ve been bullied relentlessly. more so than welcomed &/or inviting.
idk.
but my heart still goes to the fandom nonetheless.
sorry to read that. unfortunately its always hard to get away from bullying no matter were anybody tries to find a safe place
theres always going to be bad eggs im the bunch. ive been picked on for being trans or just having diffrent opinions then others
Wish this wasn't the case, but it really is that way
Wish the vocal majority of the fandom would actually kick the bullies out, but then the bullies suddenly become crybullies, and feign for sympathy. Then all of a sudden, the victims are the bad guys.
Same. A lot of them were open minded until they discovered I had conservative beliefs. Most seem to be only open minded to those they already agree with :|

Maybe it's not simply cause you're conservative. Maybe it's cause you really do have beliefs that harm others
On the other hand, they may be overreacting
Unless we have the whole story, don't gaslight cause that's just wrong no matter who does it.
Let me in. LET ME IIIIIIIIIIIIINNN!!
Rrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Nope ;)

You have captured a very professional and polished Documentary style through the storytelling of this trailer alone. I can't wait to see how the rest of the film will turn out! Congrats on your work!
Got to the end of the trailer with many tears in my eyes. Thank you all, you incredibly amazing people.
It was over 20 years ago, that I first started seeing the fandom existed, though I would not come to realize just how much I belonged in such a wonderful group until about 9 years ago. It was through the fandom that I was able to gain so much more confidence in myself. Not just with my art, but as a human being. No I don't have a fursuit, many things keep me from being able to have a beautiful mascot suit of my own, as much as I would love to bring smiles to children's faces, and all who need a smile.
I realized I truly was NOT alone in my struggles. I suffer with PTSD, and the anxiety/depression that goes along with it. I felt lost and alone for so many years. Yes I had friends and family, and some of them were simply amazing. But when I joined the fandom, I met SO many more who struggled with very similar things as I do. I connected on a deeper level than I ever dreamed possible.
And it was through the fandom that I met my absolute best friend in the world, Paige. Though we are on opposite sides of the pond so to speak (she UK while I am east coast US) my love for her as a friend, as family, could not be stronger. And we have been through SO much in our lives. And the past few years of knowing each other, we have shared laughter, our pains, our sorrows, our joys, our struggles, our fears, our hopes and dreams.
I no longer felt alone. A great deal of people out there think that just because you have family, a partner, kids, that you should feel life is complete. Sometimes... life can be so much more complicated than that. Yes you are so grateful, blessed and happy for it, but sometimes, there are things in your mind, in your life that is so much harder to share with those you love than it is with people you've never met prior to a fandom.
I have met so many people, of all different walks of life since discovering this fandom. We are there for each other. You can pour your heart out to the world, your struggles, fears, loneliness, or even something in your life that is finally going RIGHT for what seems like the first time, and many times there will always be at least one stranger that replys with heartfelt words, sympathy, empathy, or encouragement.
I have found it to be such a loving community of vastly talented artists of many, many types. I have seen sculptors, painters, metalworkers, leatherworkers, costume makers, singers, musicians, glassblowers, blacksmiths, woodshapers, carpenters, animators, writers. I have seen everything from aspiring artist/musician/writer/crafter, to just your average every day person trying to make their way in the world, who might feel alone and is reaching out to the community to feel less so in this vast world.
There are so many loving, amazingly accepting people in this fandom, and it is mind boggling just how much a difference a few strangers can make in your life until it happens.
Without the amazing people I have met in the fandom, well, my life might be different. SO many things in my life have contributed to bringing me where I am today, and the fandom is most certainly one of them! The best thing about this fandom, is the love and support you can find from SO MANY. Yes, there will always be drama here or there, haters and trolls are everywhere in every fandom and every corner of the world in every day life. But there is also a huge neverending support system that helps each other get through their day to day life journeys.
I am so HAPPY. So GRATEFUL. Incredibly BLESSED, to have met so many amazing people. So many have been with me on my journey the past few hard years. They have been there to support me. Encourage me. Reach out to me and my family. And I have never felt so darn loved and accepted. Many of these strangers, have helped me in ways I could not have dreamed possible before coming into the fandom.
They have helped me; take a deep breath and reconnect with friends and family (and continue to try and do so) helped encourage me to better communicate with others (I have become better at socializing in the world with other people because of this) They have helped me work through grief, loss, and fear. And I went from an 8 year art block to gaining confidence in my artistic capabilities and slowly but surely flourishing in my ability to keep going with it despite any self doubt or fear I have, because these amazing strangers in this community (as well as real life connections) kept encouraging me to keep going.
The list goes ON and ON and it would take me years to write all of this down.
I am so HAPPY. I love this amazing fandom and will continue to do so until the end of this mortal life and the next.
You are all amazing! I know life has been far less than kind to many of you, but please remember you are not alone, not truly. Many of us have shared your pain, or sorrows similar to your own. We know how hard it can be. But we also know first hand how amazing it is to be reached out to by even one person that shows love, care, compassion, and concern.
Keep going strong my lovelies! I am here! I have come so far and struggled through so much but I am here!
I'm so excited for this- I almost let out a cry
Thank you to everyone who are putting the work and participating into making this documentary! I'm hoping it'll change a lot of minds.
I am so thrilled for this!!! I've been craving more furry documentaries that go over the historical beats and that are made with heartfelt love. I'm so excited!
i’m not even a furry but this community gets way too much bad publicity.. y’all are wonderful. what you do makes me happy. don’t listen to people who try and bring you down
That was a incredible trailer, Ash! I am looking forward to see this documentary. Also, Sunny Dingo!!! And Syber!!
Yasssss I adore those two so much and I'm thrilled for the full release
In the end this trailer took my heart, it's very loving to see how much the fandom has grown in over 30 years. Congrats to the young & old furs out there joining the fandom, hope this made your day :)
They film looks like it’s going to be wonderful! I can’t wait!
I'm very very very excited for it
'im home im finally home',, made me borderline cry. i can relate to this is in so many levels, i finally found myself and things i love because of this fantastic community ❤️❤️. amazing just amazing
If this comes out on Netflix, in no particular order
1. I'm gonna cry
2. Opinions will be changed
3. Furries will be more accepted
4. More people will find the fandom
5. People who are on the fence and worried about being a furry ( like I was at one point) will be able to take that step into the fandom
6. This documentary alone will spark more interest and research on the fandom
7. Furries will be made (like legit I can imagine someone being bored one day browsing Netflix and picking this documentary for no particular reason and then being like "hey that's neat" before slowly learning more and becoming a part of the fandom)
8. Just raise awareness (rather you'll see this or not Ash the fandom is at an all time high acceptance wise because of people like you raising awareness.)
With lots of love Phoenix wolf the semi closet furry🤗🐺
You need to make that documentary! It'll be amazing! Million dollar video production!
This is absolutely incredible, I wish you the best of luck it makes Netflix. I would definitely watch this for the pride of our furry fandom.
Thank you and others for making this! It takes a lot of courage to bring something positive into this effed up world.
I appreciate that you take a look back at the roots. I miss a lot of the 90's furry artists. Most were cool people and I still like a lot of their art.
THIS... THIS... THIS *points to the video* is what I'm talking about! It actually brought a tear to my eye knowing that someone has put their heart and hard work into creating this film about our beloved fandom. Been in the fandom for 23 years and I'll never leave it behind no matter what. Thank you so much for creating this film! I will surely be there when it becomes available
I’m genuinely surprised to see little to no comments on this video tearing it apart with insults.
@@imfuckinglookingatyoubitch1317

I am already waiting for the documentary to be released. I hope that this wonderful documentary will be released on Netflix worldwide. This documentary will be heart-touching.
I'm really hoping we can get it on Netflix 😬
Finally a documentary that puts furries under a new light. For years, everyone has assumed this was a place that is bad, sexualize, and only cares about mature content. I know this documentary will not change the mindset of people who dislikes the furries, but it will at least give new people an understanding of what and who we are.
This is saying, "We're are furries and we're here to stay".
I used to think that but I had a friend who transitioned into a furry so I started to understand the whole fandom thing, and now I don't mind. I'm not a furry nor a hater.
It’s crazy when I hear that some people view the fandom as only a fetish. It’s honestly gross especially when it’s taken too far. My idea of being a furry is the general definition plus wanting to make children and everyone happy by having a big colorful creature come and brighten your day like a real imaginary friend!
Omg, I feel like I can use this to REALLY show my dad what we are and do and not what the media says about us. Ty
I seriously almost cried when I saw this. This is absolutely wonderful! I hope it gets onto Netflix when it releases ❤
Thanks! I'm looking forward to showing everyone!
This looks like its gonna be awesome. The fandom helped me find self worth and helped me unlock hidden talents I wouldnt have tried otherwise. I started off as a quiet, bullied down artist, lonely, and without a real goal, now I'm a suit maker, surrounded by lots of new friends and a loyal family of my own to back me up. I was on the fringe from 2010-2017, now I'm fully involved and really happy. The fandom does mean a lot.
The intro the furry fandom deserves.
Damn! This looks good both from a furry and video producer standpoints. It helps express the general origin, what it came to be, what’s happen (both good and bad) since then, and where it’s going to be. Not only that, but the shots were lined up well with the grid by putting your main focus person at those points. One day I hope to do stuff like this
they only thing i can say is this means a lot to me,this means a lot for other people and i just want to see other people been there selfs and i just...i love the fandom so much 💛
I'm not a furry, but have deep respect for these guys and really would like to know more about them
Edit: Met some fursuit folks a few months ago, were the most friendly people I've ever met
I’m not a furry but it makes my heart break when I see all those people getting bullied when the art and all the stuff they put into it is amazing.
im fucking looking at you bitch porn appears in any fandom you see on the internet. LITERALLY ANY.
People are just seeing the porn side of furries. There are lots of character designs, comics and animations that are amazing
Same here :(
Yeah, I can't stand to see people get bullied by ignorant people.
This needs to be somehow broadcasted or on TVs.. this is incredibly important to those who dont even try to get to know Furs. Thank you.
Exite mode engaged
Being a veteran I know how it feels to be alone, forgotten, thrown aside, discarded, and in other words left to rot. I’ve lost brothers and sisters in arms. 3 of which where close to me, but sadly passed by an I.E.D (improvised Explosive Device). I survived with sever damage to my left leg, and when the military forced me out I’ve never felt more alone. I declared myself a furry while I was in the military, and despite the image the media tried to display as our standard. I was still proud. After I was practically thrown aside I was borderline on taking my life, I’ve put a gun to my head more times than I care to count, but I could say TH-cam saved my life, or better yet the fandom has. I went to my first convention and never have I felt so welcome, so at home, and so at piece with myself that I thought I could never achieve after being so broken. I love being a furry and a veteran, and I will support my country and my fandom till the day I die. Thank all of you for being who you are!
And thank you for being who YOU are! Thank you for your courage, both in the military and afterwards. I hope our paths will cross at a convention someday (I won't be at MFF this weekend, but I will be at Furthemore in the spring and def'ly Anthrocon in July) so I can meet you and (if you're receptive) give you a big hug!
Straight chills! I can’t believe the quality!
I'm not even joking this brought two tears to my eyes. I'm so happy that this sort of thing exists. I am so happy that humans have found a way to spice up life and help each other cope with whatever in such a positive and beautiful and creative way. I hope the furry fandom never dies.💌
Me: BLAZEY PUFF!!!!!!
Also Me: Cringing at myself
As a furry who's aspiring to become more active in the community and to write webcomics for the fandom, I love this. I love it so much.
This film will be a whole revolution for the furry fandom
I used to hate furries. I used to think they were weird, nasty, fetish-based freaks who had no lives. That was my opinion for ages. But over time I've come to know people who are furries and I've made great friends with a load of them. I've realised they're NOT horrible! They're GREAT! Never have I seen so many people supporting each other, socialising, being so incredibly creative, showing skills and being so accepting! It's so incredible to see how brave these guys are to express themselves in a wonderfully creative way that really makes them happy. These people are some of the most open-minded, kind and supportive people I have ever met and I'm so glad I realised. I'm just sad I couldn't have seen it sooner. I hope this documentary opens some minds and helps people who still have the opinion I had to realise that these people are not monsters - they are amazing.
Im not religious, but this fandom to me is a physical representation of heaven
It helps people understand so people who hear furry would laugh before watching this film and after watching it they realize and it's a no laugh but hmm interesting I say the Fandom is very peaceful and no negativity
GURL, ASH, YOU ARE THE BEST FURRY MEDIA NEWS REPORTER!! :D I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!!! :DDD
Yoooo Your literally showing the vid that taught me how to draw faces, that makes this even more special.
So many times, a negative piece of media comes out, and we look at each other and ask, "Why is it always someone *else* talking about us? Trying to trick us into saying something that fits their preconceived notions, their already-written narrative?"
"We're a fandom of artists, of creators, of musicians, of filmmakers - why can't we do this better ourselves?"
...and then you came along to take up that mantle. If this is anything to go by, I don't regret backing you all on Kickstarter.
There'll be people nitpicking. Yeah, there'll be people who will have issues that this exists at all, wishing to 'put the genie back in the bottle', so to speak.
But if the existence of a positive documentary like this means that more people find the fandom, find the positivity, find that communal sense of home, no matter their age, religion, gender identity, physical ability, sexuality, or any other myriad of things that other groups discriminate on?
Then it's all worth it. Thank you.
I'd be heckin happy if this ends up in Netflix ಥ‿ಥ
This is legit, what I wanted to hear. I myself is apart if the furry fandom, but yet I don’t get that much hate as much as others do in other community’s. I’ve received admiration, and friends I can connect to, friend id never thought I would meet. My fursona, is an expressive way to show who I am across the world. It’s a great way I’ve discovered myself, through the fnaf community, from the motivation and inspiration I’ve developed from other animators and fur suitors up till this point. I can actually have the confidence to be out there, to show everyone that I, ambershade who was once an animator on the youtube platform is a furry, a proud aspect in the furry community, who comes here with open arms to anyone who might cross that path.
I'm not crying.. 😭💜🦊 beautiful trailer Ash!
Omg I still cry watching it ^__^
I will definitely not forget this documentary for a long time, it was really well made.
Imagine seeing this on Netflix..
the only reason I'll keep my subscription xD
This is absolutely stunning! I’d be so happy to see this on Netflix as I could finally show my family and friends what it’s really like and how this community works! Amazing work 💙💜
Absolutely amazing, I see this so inspirational, and I’m sure that it will give non furrys more understanding towords this fandom!
As a fellow furry, I am so excited for this documentary. It really brings an educational aspect to it, so people can better understand and learn
This needs to be on TV and Netflix and actually everywhere
This right here. Gives me a great relief that this fandom that I have joined is not all bad and wrong. I will continue to get past the negative and keep going forward.
"It's not just about the animal characters, it's about the people" *wanting to make a communist joke whilst on the verge of tears from how amazing this will be*
Every time it goes directly into my feelings I cry everytime at the end when he say "I'm home... I'm finally home" because this is what I tought when I joined the fandom.

It’s pretty true what you guys have explained in this video. My friends have gave me a bad image of the furry fandom and I’m not a furry which gave me an even more bad image of the furry fandom. And I regret all those bad thoughts and I respect your fandom. You guys are people and you guys have your own hobbies and passions so I am going to respect your fandom and your passions. 👍👍
