Directed by Pierre-François Martin Laval with Gérard Depardieu and Assad Ahmed

Forced to flee Bangladesh, young Fahim and his father leave the rest of the family behind to go to Paris. As soon as they arrive, they begin a real struggle to obtain political asylum, with the threat of being deported at any moment. Thanks to his gift for chess, Fahim meets Sylvain, one of the best chess coaches in France. Between mistrust and attraction, they will get to know each other and become friends. As the French Championship begins, the threat of expulsion becomes pressing and Fahim has only one chance to get out of it: to be French Champion.
