Queen of Katwe is the true story of 10-year-old Phiona Mutesi (Nalwanga) who became a Chess Champion exposing her to a world outside the poor town of Katwe in Kampala, Uganda. Her mother, Harriet (Lupita Nyong’o), vigorously makes ends meet selling vegetables in the market. She worries about her daughter with all the attention she begins to attract and tries to protect her from disappointment. This shows its face in the form of discouragement but eventually her mother can no longer deny her potential.
She quickly advances through the ranks in tournaments, but breaks away from her family to focus on her own life. Disney’s “Queen of Katwe” opens in U.S. theaters in limited release on September 23, expanding wide September 30, 2016. You got to see it first! Sign up for tickets today!
