After being targeted by Boko Haram, Kayode Adewumi arrives in New York
City with his wife, Olu, and their two sons—desperate to secure asylum before
time runs out. As the risk of deportation looms and the past closes in,
eight-year-old Tani's extraordinary gift for chess becomes an unexpected beacon
of hope, transforming their fight for survival into a story of resilience, sacrifice,
and love.

Based on a remarkable true story.
