A Simultaneous Mind

Steven Bellens     31.07.2025    5

A teenage chess grandmaster pushes his mind and body to the limit, facing 50 opponents at once in pursuit of a world record.
But the real battle isn’t on the chess boards, it’s proving that with enough determination, anyone can overcome the obstacles standing between them and their dreams.

Graag terug de originele titel bij dit bericht. In de – sowieso al potsierlijke – vertaling gaat de dubbele betekenis van ‘simultaneous’ verloren.
