Schwarz und weiß wie Tage und Nächte (1978). *The* lost chess movie. TV only, no DVD, no torrents. Only in Spanish on YouTube.
A darn good chess movie, perhaps best ever!
Starring Bruno Ganz and Ljuba Tadić, filmed partly in my hometown Ljubljana, Slovenia with some local cast I admired as a kid in the theatre, movies and TV (Anton Petje, Sandi Čolnik, Matija Barl). I love it.
