Candela, after her divorce, loses her job at an elite school. It’s time to put the pieces back on the board and look for a second chance by teaching at her old high school. She goes from the crème de la crème to the crème de la mediocrity. But he will learn that what matters is not who you were yesterday, it is who you are today, that a group of losers can be the champions, and that in chess, as in life, it doesn’t matter if you are a king or a pawn, you all end up in the same box. (Festival de Málaga. Cine en Español.)
