Guanglin is a blind boy from a poor single-parent family in China. His prospects would typically be severely limited, but he is also very gifted at the game of GO and gains fame as a prodigy.

This captivating documentary follows him as he navigates his way through the pressure of developing his talents, dealing with his troubled past, and the relationship with a father who is pushing him hard to succeed.

What are the true motives of all those helping the boy, and will Guanglin manage to become a professional GO player?
