In the distant future, a distraught father makes a difficult decision for the wellbeing of his child. When his son is born without most of his brain, he becomes the perfect candidate for the Alkehine’s Gun project. For the ten years following the procedure, the father has attempted to communicate with his son in the only way he can: games of chess. Up until now, it’s been a one-sided conversation. Now his son has finally spoken. Join artist and writer Joel Gill as he delves into the mystery of Alkehine’s Gun and humanity.
