Dali & Beyond Film Series: Searching for Bobby Fischer

March 3, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm UTC-5

The Dali & Beyond Film Series features an eclectic selection of films – both familiar and fantastic – with monthly themes ranging from horror, experimental and psychological to kid-friendly and world cinema. In conjunction with The Dali Museum’s exhibition Dali/Duchamp, March will feature chess related films in tribute to Marcel Duchamp’s favorite game.

Searching for Bobby Fischer
After he beats his dad in a chess match, Josh Waitzkin, a 7-year-old, gets noticed for his talent. He becomes interested in speed chess at the park and learns the game from a hustler named Vinnie. However, Josh’s parents invest in the services of Bruce, a famous coach who has very different practices. Between Bruce’s methods and the stress of the competitions, Josh learns that even a chess prodigy cannot make all the right moves.
