Roll for Friendship: Building Community Through Playing a Game
Playing Dungeons & Dragons is often dismissed as escapism, but in this four-minute 'mini-documentary', we found the opposite to be true.
By visiting a home game, spending time inside a local gaming store, and talking with the cast of The Twenty-Sided Tavern, this short explores how D&D creates real-world community through shared storytelling, trust, and collaboration. Whether gathered around a dining room table, rolling dice under fluorescent lights, or performing for a live audience, players aren’t just escaping reality, they’re building it together, one story at a time.
