Meet Jens Pulver

I recently had the good fortune to meet Jens Pulver, the first Lightweight World Champion in the UFC. He is an incredible individual with an amazing personal story, who is now, (at age 34, and after four straight losses), returning to the cage on March 6, 2010 to fight in what may be his final bout.

He is determined to come out on top, and I’m determined to capture every moment on this journey.

Below is a little teaser trailer I put together this week to capture Jens’s voice, the essence of the story, and the tone of the film I am looking to make.

We’re all fighting for something…whether it’s fighting to get away from something, or to get to something new, fighting for what is right, for our families, or to simply stay alive. Jens’s life story has run this entire gamut, and reflects our basic human struggle to overcome adversity at all costs.

I feel privileged to be the one to tell it.

I am going to update the films progress here, and eventually at it’s own site.

Please, if you feel compelled, pass on this trailer. We’re currently working diligently to raise the funds needed to produce the film, and can use all the help we can get.
