Yayınlanma tarihi: Kas 08, 2020

Documentary following Akram Khan, one of the world's most acclaimed contemporary dancers and choreographers, as he enters a very different arena - of mixed martial arts, or MMA. He meets three of Britain's leading fighters - Terry `The Dominator" Brazier, Michael `Seabass" Shipman and Michael `Venom" Page - as they prepare for career-defining fights at Wembley Arena. Akram tries to understand the hold this violent spectacle has for so many, and as he becomes involved in the fighters' training and learns more about their lives, he's forced to confront his own relationship with violence and the events that traumatised him as a teenager.
