The true story of one man's mission to give inner city kids of Washington DC something he never had - a future. After being incarcerated for eighteen years, Eugene Brown established the Big Chair Chess Club to get kids off the streets and working towards lives they never believed they were capable of. This is his inspirational story.
A soulful, transformative turn brings the weight of eighteen years behind bars to life through the eyes of a man fighting for his community. This portrait of a Washington D.C. mentor shows how a simple chessboard can become a lifeline for children trapped in the cycle of the streets.
