Summary
Winter, 2022. Florence Vassy is 71. The World Chess Championships in Merano and Bangkok took place 38 years ago.
Yevgenia Sergievskaya is a tired music teacher in England. She is on strike. She wants something more than all of this.
Mischa Sergievsky is a chess player in New York. He is visiting Yevgenia after a long time apart. He has (mostly) put his past behind him.
Surely they are all far enough away from any reminder of the events of the 80s, right?
