Featuring trainer of champions Cesar Gracie, noted fighter Lana Stefanac, and Coach Dan Black along with fighter Nate Diaz and many others, "Fight For It" is the story of self-proclaimed hippie and peace activist Leslie Smith. Leslie is swiftly rising in the world of professional mixed martial arts and sheâ€™s training with some of the Bay Areaâ€™s best.  Always with a smile on her face, even as she enters the ring, Leslie is a late-starter as a fighter and now sheâ€™s fighting against time itself, anxious to achieve her goals. But sometimes accidents will happen.Life changes once you step inside the cage. Shot in fighting gyms in the US and Thailand, â€œFight For Itâ€ documents Leslieâ€™s growth as a fighter and as a person. Yet even a gladiator does more than train. Full of twists and passion, you simply couldnâ€™t write a story of empowerment like that of Leslie â€œThe Peacemakerâ€ Smith. With a riveting finale that will have cheering, â€œFight For Itâ€ is a motion picture experience about the making of a mixed martial artist.Reviews at Amazon.com:Fight for It is an engaging and inspiring look into the life of a remarkable woman of courage and drive. And it's a fight movie, as well!The filmmakers will keep you hooked on Leslie Smith's story throughout her struggles and victories until the end.But wait! She's NOT done! See her fight on in many more MMA battles to come--across the nation. This amazing young woman is not done with the fight world and the fans just LOVE her! JJCascadeI am pleased to say a movie that portrayed a sport I knew nothing about reminded me to look beneath the surface without judgment. MMA, or mixed martial arts, is the backdrop in "Fight For It" and it offered me a ringside seat to the power that one individual can have to help create change-in their own lives, as well as in those they touch. Leslie Smith's touch packs a powerful punch as she makes the unheard of stance for peace and sustainability in a conflict-ridden world from inside a fight cage. Using her status as a prize-winning MMA fighter to inspire others (in this case, women in a predominantly male arena), she is a smiling, yet powerful example of how we can choose to rise above our life circumstances. In her travels, Leslie has recognized the need to offer this message not only in this country, but to struggling third world nations abroad. There is a place for venting our pent-up emotions without giving in to the temptations of uncontrolled violence, and Leslie shows how she has accomplished that through the sport of martial arts training, competitions, and living a healthy lifestyle. My favorite part in the movie was how she redirected her energy by working with kids and exposing them to martial arts, and through teaching yoga while recovering from an injury. Any experience life gives us can be turned into success, if we are willing to fight for it.Congratulations to Claudine Jordan and Tom Klodin of Ceze Films for revealing the prize behind this fighter.Jonathan JoshuaThis movie is Great! It gives me a perspective of what goes on for women in and out of the cage. I Love Leslie's mission; "Fighting for Peace". She brings inspiration into the MMA world and her energy is delightful to watch. She is always smiling and upbeat, and ready to improve what she needs to for the next match. Her loyalty to becoming better from each fight is impressive and she maintains a positive attitude with much enthusiasm! Truly rewarding to watch. Thankyou for allowing us an inside view.KelliThis is a very inspiring film. Leslie's discipline and ability to roll with the punches makes her a fascinating subject.
