TRENTA Y DOS

After her grandfather’s death, a grieving Maria receives a chess board from his will. All the pieces are made of glass except one: the white horse is made of wood, and Maria has a special fondness for it.
During her mourning, Maria is mostly alone — until one morning she finds that one of the chess pieces has moved by itself. Without really knowing what is happening, Maria decides to continue the match. And so her situation starts to improve thanks to that invisible presence that keeps her company.
After spending a few days away visiting her family, Maria returns and finds, to her disappointment, that none of the chess pieces have moved in her absence. Soon after, she receives a call from her mother telling her that they have found a package in her name from her grandfather. Maria asks that they send it to her as soon as possible, and then talks to her grandmother about what has been happening to her. After a tough conversation about the pain of losing a loved one, Maria falls further into her depression. She is only able to leave her bed when her grandfather’s presence returns to keep her company. When another chess piece finally moves, Maria wins the match.
Then she receives the package, her grandfather’s last gift. Inside, she finds a letter from him encouraging her to move on and enjoy her life. She also finds the missing glass chess piece: the white horse. After this last game of chess with her grandfather, Maria finally manages to make the first step to moving on.
