The Nana Project is a comedy film distributed by Gravitas Ventures.
Nana is a very strong and competitive matriarch of the family. Her goal is to win the state chess tournament, and she will do anything to pull that off. It is amazing that an elderly person has the extremely sharp faculties to be competing at all. However, her real motive is to reunite her two grandsons, who have been estranged for years, by recruiting them both to help on her journey.
