Mastergame Mesterjátszma
1956 Budapest. A young couple boards one of the last refugee trains, escaping the Soviet invasion. As they race toward freedom, they become embroiled in a high-stakes chess match, whose outcome will determine their destiny. Battles of wits, desperate communists, and stolen Vatican treasures collide in this thrilling, serpentine adaptation of Stefan Zweig’s “The Royal Game.”
