As you glance over to the right of the screen, you should see the new poster for Fur Love of the Game, designed by the brilliant Adam Turman.

The movie was created by our team, Zirkus Technik, for Fargo’s 48 Hour Film Contest this year. The plot revolves around a campus club olympics being held at North Dakota State School of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Science (NDSSAHVS for short). A pair of star-crossed lovers, one a campus security guard, the other a furry with a particular fetish for Panda bears, must deal with the strained relations between their two worlds.

Greg, Mike and I had long wanted to incorporate furries into a production of ours. The siren call of those plush covered sexual deviants (not to be confused of course with Plushies, a separate sub-culture in the mammalia genre), proved too great a song on this turn.

The greatest news that came today was of a co-worker of mine taking my Saturday shift at the Fargo Theatre, allowing me to attend the Free Range Film Festival in Duluth, where Fur Love will screen as well as a number of other films my friends and I are attached to. And the chance to watch movies in a barn? Who could pass that up?
