After undergoing a left functional hemispherectomy (a surgery removing most of the left side of the brain to avoid the spread of seizures), Griffin McConnell learns to cope with his disability as he challenges the traditional mold of what a chess master could look like. Following six years of being seizure free, his seizures have returned. Now, while attempting to make master, Griffin fights against the clock to keep playing the game that once saved his life.
