Synopsis
Lovely, repressed and quietly intelligent, French chambermaid Hélène discovers she has a knack for chess. This obsession-much to the chagrin of her husband and teenage daughter-leads her to seek the clandestine tutelage of a reclusive American doctor, a liaison that radically transforms both of their lackluster lives.
