O Xadrez das Cores

Directed by Marco Schiavon

With Miriam Pires, Zezeh Barbosa, Anselmo Vasconcelos and Rita Guedes

Cida is black, is 40 years old and works for Maria, an 80 year old woman, widow and childless, who is extremely racist. The mistress gloats about the maid, who puts up with being mistreated in silence, but finds a form of revenge in a game of chess.
