Not so long ago I stumbled upon a neat 40-something-minute furry movie called "Bitter Lake". I managed to find it on YouTube (https://youtu.be/kaL4YJbXUys). It was apparently produced by EZwolf and Shay. I haven't done that much research on it, but, as I remember it, it was aired at Eurofurrance in 2011(?).
Its setting is a midevil country run by, of course, anthropomorphic animals. It's however in ruins due to a civil war that is raging. The country itself is divided into four provinces. The plot is, as I remember it, uniting the country, and settling the war through diplomatic discussion between the 4 representatives of those provinces.
It's honestly kind of charming. The video quality is amazing, the soundtrack and music are fascinating (probably 'cause it was made by Foxamore), and the costumes are super realistic and cool. It is true though, the plot isn't as interesting. I'm not gonna spoil it, but I'm just gonna say it usually revolves around arguing, talking, and a bit of combat at the end. Sure, the movements may be a bit exaggerated and sloppy, but at the same time, you can't expect anything better, since characters in full body suits must move around like that to better represent their emotions (like the Power Rangers).
It's a bit disappointing, however, how much hate it garnered, not just by non-furries but also furries, as I heard. It's said that the real flaw was the aforementioned not-as-interesting plot and slow pacing plus the limited place in which the events occurred. It got a 5.9/10 on IMDb, so I guess it's not THAT badly rated...
