The Art of Self-Defense

In the trailer for The Art of Self-Defense, we are introduced to the sensei (Alessandro Nivola) of a local karate dojo. Casey (Jesse Eisenberg) seeks him out to learn karate because he lives in fear and wishes to be what intimidates him. There he meets fellow student Anna (Imogen Poots) and begins his journey as a student. He takes to karate and quickly starts applying it to his daily life, but finds that Sensei is molding him into a weapon with dire consequences and must learn to fight back against they very man that taught him.
