Synopsis
The film tells the story of a girl who plays white chess pieces again and again. Each game gradually impacts her personal life, as the scenarios and feelings that emerge on the board repeat themselves. After each new game, the mood and interactions between the characters shift. Each failure leaves a mark on the girl's life, turning her self-confidence into fatigue. When the familiar order is disrupted, an opportunity for a new beginning emerges. Playing with black and white chess pieces becomes a means of self-discovery and a means of transforming events.
