Bruised

In BRUISED, Jackie Justice (Halle Berry) is a disgraced UFC fighter who walked out of a fight four years ago. Now she lives with her abusive manager/boyfriend, Desi (Adan Canto), and earns money as a domestic worker. When Desi takes her to an underground match, the fighter known as The Werewolf (Gabi Garcia) challenges Jackie, and Jackie defeats her. This is witnessed by Immaculate (Shamier Anderson), an MMA league owner who thinks he can get Jackie a major fight. But just then, Jackie's mother (Adriane Lenox) shows up with Jackie's young son, Manny (Danny Boyd Jr.), whose father has just died. As Jackie starts her training with Buddhakan (Sheila Atim) and Pops (Stephen McKinley Henderson), she must face the difficult relationships she has with Desi and her mother, while growing closer to the supportive Buddhakan. But she'll need to be at her sharpest if she's going to defeat her dangerous opponent, Lady Killer (Valentina Shevchenko).
