00:00Growing up my dad would read me fairy tales before bed of queens who ruled
00:04kingdoms and knights who risked everything. As a kid we moved around a lot
00:10but no matter where we went I had chess. I got that from my grandma. She used to
00:16call chess the mad woman's game.
00:21She'd tell me if I learned to play I could find out the secrets about life.
00:25What if I do make a mistake and I'm alone? My name's Bianca. I'm 19. I just don't
00:34want to get stuck going around in circles. May the best player win.
00:43What's most important is to have a vision. Right. I know it sounds crazy but my
00:49dream is to be an artist in Paris. You have to get your pieces out.
00:55You need to take that step forward. What's holding you back?
00:59How do you know if something is worth the risk?
01:01What's clear is that you always have to make the choice.
01:07Being down here in Mexico with my family I feel how close they are.
01:11I just feel very connected with my family more than I have in a long long time.
01:16I don't want to lose the people who matter most.
01:18You know taking this next step in my life I genuinely think I'm just scared of failing.
01:23There is one world, one life, one chance and it's yours.
01:27What are the steps that you need to take to help you become the artist that you want to be?
01:32I'm scared of having that regret.
01:35I've been dreaming of this moment since I was a kid.
01:40One of the greatest skills to have is the ability to think ahead.
01:44Is Paris my end game?
01:45The beauty of this place is the tension between the really scary and the really painful and the really beautiful.
01:51Paris is the best city in the world.
01:53We don't know the future.
01:54So you just follow your heart.
01:57I love you mom.
01:57I love you too.
01:58But we still need to play the game.
02:02You have to make a choice anyway.
02:07If life is like a game of chess, how do I play it?
