The Queen's Gambit

Female chess players are common now, but they were rare in the past. The drama "The Queen's Gambit" changes that narrative! It tells the story of a young girl who climbs to the top of the chess world.

Meet Beth Harmon (Anya Taylor-Joy), a girl who grew up in an orphanage. She was shy, quiet, and didn't stand out in a crowd.

As she grows up, Beth discovers chess and quickly falls in love with the game. She starts playing in chess tournaments, from small local ones to big international competitions.

However, at the height of her success, Beth struggles with drug and alcohol addiction. Her friends don't want to see her talent go to waste. Together, they help Beth fight her demons so she can make a comeback in the chess world.
