Summary

Set in New York in the late 1950s, the biographical drama Fur explores an unlikely romance that leads Diane Arbus (**Academy Award** winner Nicole Kidman - The Hours, Birth) into a strange new world, sparking her evolution into one of the most provocative and visionary photographers of all time. As a photographer, she seeks out "the forbidden" in New York City's most sordid haunts, transmuting her own terror into art. Her unsettling photographs make people see what they would otherwise turn away from: the normalcy in life's freaks, and the freakishness in normal people
