Academy Award–nominated filmmaker Rory Kennedy discusses her Netflix documentary Queen of Chess, which tells the extraordinary true story of Judit Polgár, one of the greatest chess players in history.
Chess has long been considered a male-dominated sport—one where genius is measured quietly and tradition reigns supreme. Judit Polgár shattered those assumptions at an astonishingly young age, defeating world champions, breaking records previously held by Bobby Fischer, and refusing to compete in women-only tournaments. She didn’t want to be the best female chess player—she wanted to be the best chess player, period.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
