I know only the basics of chess and am an appalling player. I understood nothing of the strategies and only barely know the names of the positions on the board. . Despite that, this was mesmerizing! It's a beautiful film cinematically. It is heartbreak and triumph. It is the good, the bad, and the ugly of humanity. It is the struggle and dedication of talent and craft. I wasn't sure this would hold my attention, but I couldn't stop watching and it! I couldn't help feeling it! I don't know how anyone made a series about chess so riveting, but it was a beauty!
