Description

Film poster for From Pawn to King, a documentary film directed by Gloria Argüelles, designed by Liudmila López Domínguez.
The foreground of the poster features a grey staircase ascending to an infinte point in the distance with one pawn at the lower end of the staircase, and a mass of other red pawns at the base of the stairs. In the upper right corner, a halftone black and white hand grasps a red king chess piece and moves it towards two red pawns on a chessboard background. The chessboard background alternates red and white squares: each white square has a red outline of a high heel shoe; each red square has a white outline of a loafer. The title appears in white space at the top of the poster with decorative elements added under the '"o" in peon to create the shape of a pawn; A cross shape added to the top of the "r" in rey, resembles the shape of a king chess piece.
