The Politics of Fur(2002)

The Politics of Fur is a comedy about power, desire, and the music industry. Una, a domineering L.A. music producer who shares her home with a pet tiger and her gay assistant, sets her sights on B, an independent female artist. Determined to both sign her to a record deal and seduce her, Una pursues B aggressively—but their relationship proves far more complicated than she anticipated. The film explores the collision between Una's controlling nature and B's fierce independence, set against the backdrop of Los Angeles's cutthroat music scene. What begins as a calculated business move becomes a genuine emotional entanglement, forcing both women to confront their own vulnerabilities and desires. The title's provocative reference to fur hints at the animal instincts and raw power dynamics that drive the story forward.
