Jiu-Jitsu Vs. The World
This is a great documentary, which really showcases what jiu-jitsu can do for everyone.

There are also some really good interviews with a few female jiu-jitsu black belts, including Felicia Oh and Cindy Omatsu . This documentary really touches on how jiu-jitsu changes for you as a practitioner, and a human being. It is worth the time, and an easy watch. Link below:

BRAVE NEW WORLD - A Jiu Jitsu Film
This is a quick video, but it really hits hard. It starts off with a disheveled military veteran waking up in the morning. It doesn't show it in the film, but it doesn't look like he is having the best of what life has to offer right now. It follows him around town as he imbibes, and a stranger leads him to his first jiu-jitsu class. It proceeds from there, I don't want to spoil it. Watch the rest below:
