VN:F [1.9.8_1114]
Rating: 0.0/5 (0 votes cast)

Against the backdrop of crumbling middle-class America, The Dungeon Masters highlights two men and one woman who devote their lives to Dungeons and Dragons. This storied role-playing game, re-imagining the tropes of classic heroic cinema, creates an intimate portrait of minor struggles and triumphs writ large.
Why It's FilmBuff
Giving an inside look into the culture of Dungeons and Dragons, the film also remains an inside view into the psyches of three unique and dedicate DM's (Dungeon Masters). One word to describe these three: charming. Normally one wouldn't think young men and women playing in their imaginations and wearing the occasional blackface would be something you could find charming, but The Dungeon Masters will surprise you.
