World of Darkness

Both games had a great influence on film, literature, fashion and club culture. Television series like "True Blood" or the "Underworld" movie series can be traced back to them, as well as goth-punk club fashion and the way stories are told. But the games had the greatest impact on their fans, whose lives were forever changed by them. In an entertaining and insightful way, this film features exclusive archival footage of the early years and the creation of vampire culture, extensive interviews with the founders, writers and illustrators, as well as the fans and stars of the game.
