Meet the Furries

Explore the misunderstood community of people who like to dress up as animals. Is it a fetish? Or a way of making friends? Follow Luisa as she goes to her first Furry convention. How will her oldest friend take it, as she reveals her hidden hobby for the first time? Many people assume it's about dark stuff and fetishes - but Luisa explains it’s more about being creative, breaking down barriers and making friends. Luisa then gets ready to set off to one of the UK’s biggest Furry conventions, Confuzzled 2018, all by herself. How will she cope, when she openly admits she has anxiety issues and is not always confident speaking to strangers? Will she make friends? Will she be accepted into the Furry community and has she finally found her people?
