"Over the Board”, a story about twin brothers who meet for the first time, under unique circumstances. Before they can come together, however, they must first overcome their differences.
Ian is a top collegiate chess player. Eric is an inmate with a gift for the game. Eric and Ian are identical twins who have never met, until today.
When their worlds collide, one thing becomes immediately clear–they both share a passion, and talent, for the game of chess.
But will this be enough to make them family?
The only way to settle their differences, the only way to understand each other, is over the board
