THE DRAGON DEFENSE

Synopsis

Samuel (53) is a professional chess player that lives off of betting on small matches he knows he will win. His best friend is Joaquín (65), an accomplished watch-maker who’s about to loose the workshop he inherited from his father. And then there’s Marcos (72), a spanish homeopath devoted to finding a formula to win poker matches. These three men have found shelter in the safety of their routines, avoiding to facing up to their failures. But a time comes when they are confronted by reality and causes them to stagger. They’ll have to make decisions that put their comfortable safety at risk;apparently small decisions that will force them to reevaluate their place in the world.
