08/16/2020 A good film that portrays the boy named Fahim who migrates to France and ventures out into the world of chess. The story is quite inspirational, because a whiz kid like Fahim could appear in any field such as football, shogi, go, tennis, programming, mathematics, painting, sculpture, you name it. 'Inclusion' might as well be a debatable topic, but this film serves its purpose of letting all of us know how crucial it is to work hard towards your dreams. See more Read all reviews
