Pawn Sacrifice
Description
A great history and a greater challenge in the midst of a cold war between the Americans and the Soviets. That is the true legend of Bobbie Fisher, an old American chess player who found himself among two great powers. It was the biggest challenge when Bobby Fischer decided to enter the biggest challenge in that game with the greatest Soviet player Boris Spassky. It was the 1972 World Chess Championship, which he brought together with his clever Soviet counterpart, which was a major challenge to Fischer and Spassky in the face of a rivalry between the world's great powers.
