Plot
In the short documentary “A Good Man”, the topic of masculinity is explored through the lens of a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym in Rotterdam-West, a place where men come together to train, reflect, and connect. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a high-pressure, fast-moving society. While following everyday training, belt promotions, and the tension of tournaments, the film sketches a quiet contrast between the rougher character of the sport and the softer sides of its practitioners: moments of care, openness, and vulnerability. “A Good Man” does not claim to hold the answers, but shows that there are many ways to become one. It invites you to step onto the mat and ask yourself: what is your place in society?
