Fursona follows the comedic story of two unlikely lovers: Kelly, a lonely young
woman who works as the personal assistant for her older and more successful
sister (Shannon), and Michael, a comedic young man who is normal in every way,
with the exception of his coming from a family of people who wear lion costumes
all the time. Despite their obvious differences Kelly and Michael form an
empathetic connection and find themselves falling in love. As Kelly continues to
date Michael she journeys further and further into Michael’s eccentric world as a
street vendor while Shannon struggles to end their unconventional relationship
to maintain Kelly as her indentured whipping boy. What follows is a hilarious
romantic comedy that advocates the lack of importance appearances have in true
love relationships and how, in life, we seldom get to choose who or why we love.

What is Fursona?
Fursona is an independent film being made over the course of the
upcoming year in association with the film program of Keene State
College. Our goal is to reach audiences who love such off-beat and
humorous films and TV programs as Harold and Maude, When Harry
Met Sally, and Flight of the Conchords. Once completed, Fursona will
premiere at the 2009 Keene State College Film Festival, then tour
various film festival venues across North America, followed by taking full
advantage of the new possibilities available to independent film
productions through online distribution.
