Queen of Katwe is the vibrant true story of a young girl selling corn on the streets of rural Uganda, Phiona Mutesi (Nalwanga), whose world rapidly changes when she is introduced to the game of chess by Robert Katende (Oyelowo), a soccer player turned missionary. As a result of the support she receives from her mother Harriet (Nyong’o), family and community, Phiona is instilled with the confidence and determination she needs to pursue her dream of becoming an international chess champion.
