Failure and braids, young girls and failures

Yvain Genevay

Portraits of four young girls who play in tournaments as juniors. We met them during a tournament organized by the Prangins chess club in the canton of Vaud. Known for being unconquering and isolated from boys from a very early age, girls struggle to find a place in the male-dominated chess arena.
