Screenings
We’ll be screening a number of shorts, pilots and other films, more or less related to the vampire theme: “Children of the night” would be a good way to sum them up! They range from the serious to the comic, intense to light, and are a showcase of the many different ways in which vampires and their ilk can be seen…
