A Tail of Identity

In A Tail of Identity, we meet three "furries": people who feel, deep-down inside, that being human actually constrains who they are, and they prefer dressing up as animal characters. These men reveal, with incredible honesty and humor, what it means to feel more like themselves when dressed as an animal than they do in their own skin.
