Bobby Fischer Against the World will be playing in IFI Dublin on the 15th of July.

Officially selected at Sundance Film Festival Bobby Fischer Against the World traces the Grand Master from child prodigy to Cold War hero to controversial recluse, with particular focus on the world-renowned victory over Spassky which transformed Fischer into an Icon. The film brings rare archival footage of Bobby as well as insightful interviews with Kasparov, Susan Polgar, Sam Sloan and Dr. Anthony Saidy.

The film is already drumming up plenty of national press interest as well as from publications Chess, Chessbase, New in Chess. While a recent London preview saw Magnes Carlsen and Gawain Jones in attendance.
