Trailer for David Mamet's Redbelt, starring Chiwetel Ejiofor, Alice Braga, Tim Allen, Emily Mortimer, Ricky Jay, Rodrigo Santoro, Joe Mantegna and David Paymer.
'Set in the west-side of Los Angeles fight world, a world inhabited by bouncers, cagefighters, cops and special force types, Redbelt, is the story of Mike Terry (Ejiofor), a Jiu-Jitsu teacher who has avoided the prize fighting circuit, choosing instead to pursue an honorable life by operating a self-defense studio with a samurai's code.

'Terry and his wife Sondra (Braga), struggle to keep the business running to make ends meet. An accident on a dark, rainy night at the Academy between an off duty officer (Max Martini) and a distraught lawyer (Mortimer) puts in motion a series of events that will change Terry's life dramatically, introducing him to a world of promoters (Jay, Mantegna) and movie star Chet Frank (Allen). Faced with this, in order to pay off his debts and regain his honor, Terry must step into the ring for the first time in his life.'

I'm seeing this one for Chiwetel, who is never less than marvellous. [official site] [imdb]
