Phiona’s triumph at chess can thrill your family as it did her friends and fellow stu- dents. slum, and director Mira Nair, very familiar with the environment, having lived nearby, shot the fi lm mostly in the Katwe slums. Over 100 Ugandans worked as extras in the fi lm’s street scenes, 80 of them without any prior experience with, or in front of, cameras. Da- vid Oyelowo, best known for playing Martin Luther King, Jr. in “Selma,” is the charismatic chess teacher who understands the vul- nerabilities of his young charges and knows how to lift their diminished spirits while teaching them how to win. Here are a few things that Phiona learns along the way that children can universally relate to as they watch the fi lm. Th ese points would also make for great family discussions that en- courage kids to connect the concepts to their own chal- lenges. — Learn to use your mind. Th e movie shows how chess teaches the chil- dren to make a plan and focus on that plan as they move forward. It is not just about winning. Th e pur- pose of the competitions is really to learn strategy and reasoning to overcome challenges in life. — Do not be too quick to give up. Instead, stay focused on the destination and let the journey unfold. It’s easy to get discouraged when something dreamed for looks as though it’s slipped away. Th e impor- tant thing is to concentrate on the goal no matter how you’re feeling in the mo- ment. — Where you come from does not defi ne where you’re going. Phi- ona shows us it ultimately doesn’t matter where you’ve come from. It can actually be a positive thing for your dreams to exceed your cur- rent ability to achieve them. — Losing is part of life. While feeling defeat is nor- mal, don’t succumb to those feelings. It’s about what you can learn from the loss. As David Oyelowo’s character, Katende, advises Phiona, “Losses happen to every- one. But then you reset the pieces and play again.” — Never compromise integrity to win. Staying true to your values and your morals is what will take you far in life, and open up doors no one can close. Too oft en, we’re paying atten- tion to what everyone else is doing. “Queen of Katwe” proves that winning is not about compromising to fi t in. It’s about showing up, being true to yourself and doing what you do best. Such considerations paired with the crowd- pleasing victories, comedic moments, and approach- able, family-friendly tone of the fi lm enhance the impact of the fi lm’s life lessons and encourage kids to come up with their own.

In addition to provid- ing a captivating, funny and heartwarming glimpse into the lives of children in cur- rent-day Africa, it also has the advantage of providing valuable life lessons that can help open your chil- dren’s minds to new ways of approaching problems and inspire them to try new challenges that can expand their skills for navigating the world. “Queen of Katwe” is based on the true story of Phiona Mutesi, a coura- geous young girl from the slums of Africa who sells corn on the streets of rural Uganda and whose world rapidly ?changes when she’s introduced to the game of chess. As the movie un- folds, it presents a wonder- ful example of how mastery of the game of chess helps Phiona become a champion in the game of life. (Phiona, now 20, hopes to earn a col- lege degree and continue to study chess in the hope of becoming a Grandmaster.) What makes “Queen of Katwe” diff erent from other inspirational stories is its setting. As Phiona dreams of a better life, she must face the possibility of not mak- ing it out of the slum. And even if she does, she’ll have to navigate in a world she has no idea existed. Most audiences will never expe- rience her world or even know there is such a place or that kids manage to grow up and thrive in such dire circumstances. Adding to the realism are the actors and their backgrounds.
