Disney’s Queen of Katwe is a story of hope. It shows the power of combining the talents, hard work and determination of those currently trapped in poverty, with the right encouragement, advocacy and support from those seeking to help them fulfil their potential. Phiona’s particular story of success through chess is exceptional, but the principle is universal: enabling people to develop and use their talents can achieve great things.

This downloadable Discussion Guide and accompanying one-minute discussion-starter video, will stimulate conversations about the spiritual, moral, social and cultural issues raised by Disney’s Queen of Katwe. It is suitable for use in schools, churches and community groups.

This Take-One episode explores the questions: ‘Why does empowering women make such a difference to the world?’ and ‘What will it take to enable everyone to fulfil their potential?’

‘Take-One.TV is a hugely valuable new resource to help people engage in discussions about issues that matter. It superbly uses movies that raise life questions with which everyone needs to engage.
