Positivity is what makes Fursona such a revelatory watch for non-furries. Aside from Uncle Kage, the subjects of the documentary are sensitive, effervescent, and charming. Rodriguez did a fantastic job casting a wide net, highlighting a woman who balances being a furry with being a mother, and Varka, one of the furries who owns the famous furry sex toy company, Bad Dragon. That both sections of the film are equally engaging is a testament to both Rodriguez’s storytelling, and the transcendent humanity in the furry community. Whether a furry’s interests are childlike, or decidedly erotic, each member of the fandom comes off strikingly genuine when interviewed by Rodriguez.
Another interview is up - in my opinion this writer did the best job of anyone yet at actually describing what the documentary is like, instead of just focusing on the most controversial subjects: https://www.inverse.com/article/15210-fursonas-documentary-illuminates-the-beaut...
I couldn't agree more.
