VRCで見つけた 「希望のカタチ」 私のライブの動画も撮ってくださった監督、Joe HuntingさんのVRCで撮影した映画がNew Yorkerで配信されていた。 このお話は、VRCで出会ったフレンドが重い腎臓病で命の危機と知って、アメリカから北欧まで腎臓移植しに行った方のドキュメンタリー。泣けるんだよ。
"The Reality of Hope" is now streaming via @NewYorker! Thank you @HiyuMarten, @photografotter and everyone who we made this with, especially @MaxFilmsVR. The film shows the kindness of the VR furry community. I hope you enjoy. https://t.co/bpbd7YXS1D

"The Reality of Hope" features four songs by @JoelBulle, mostly from their enchanting album Låtar, which inspired much of my filmmaking process. Thank you Joel! Go listen to the album! Plus, enjoy the stunning original soundtrack for The Midnight Walk (@MoonHoodStudios).
I got the beautiful opportunity to have some of my music featured in this little gem of a documentary by @Joeahunting! Now available for streaming on The New Yorker. Congratulations Joe!

YMS (@2gay2lift) and I reviewed a film together, at a furry convention. Uh yeah…. let’s just say some of your claims of me being a furry back when I was wearing a mantis mask was correct lmao https://t.co/v3L8AeoAtQ
