Brawler is a 2011 American fight drama written and directed by Chris Sivertson. It stars Marc Senter and Nathan Grubbs as the Fontaine Brothers. Senter and Grubbs also produced the film through their company GFY Films. The film had its world premiere at the 2011 Fantasia Film Festival.
In New Orleans, the Fontaine family name echoes the streets within both the traditional boxing community and the illegal underground fight world. Charlie Fontaine's unflinching loyalty turns out to be both his greatest strength and his Achilles heel, while Bobby Fontaine's ambitions and shenanigans, driven by a dangerous amount of ego, turn destructive. Charlie suffers a permanent injury when called to battle to defend his little brother. While Charlie is forced to hang up his gloves, Bobby's guilt drags him to new lows. When Bobby finds himself drawn to Charlie's wife, an all-out war of brother vs brother ensues.
Brawler was written by Chris Sivertson inspired by a true story Nathan Grubbs heard growing up in New Orleans. Filming took place in the summer of 2010 in New Orleans over 24 days.
