Synopsis: After years in and out of mental institutions, Genesis is released into the care of his estranged brother Ariki (Wayne Hapi) and thrust into his volatile gang lifestyle. Genesis finds solace by volunteering at the Eastern Knights chess club and sharing his gift with the disadvantaged Maori children of his community. Gen encourages the group to train for the upcoming National Chess Championships. But his teaching puts him at odds with his brother when Arikis son Mana (James Rolleston) shows an interest in the game. Genesiss conflict with his brother and the violent gang, along with his ongoing battle with his illness, threaten to ruin the hopeful progress Gen has made for himself and the young Eastern Knights.
