Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Will Smith stars in Concussion, a dramatic thriller based on the incredible true David vs. Goliath story of American immigrant Dr. Bennet Omalu, the brilliant forensic neuropathologist who made the first discovery of CTE, a football-related brain trauma, in a pro player and fought for the truth to be known. Omalu’s emotional quest puts him at dangerous odds with one of the most powerful – and beloved – institutions in the world. With captivating performances by Alec Baldwin and Academy Award® nominee Albert Brooks (1987 Best Supporting Actor, Broadcast News).

Peter Landesman writes and directs this thrilling drama based on real events in the life of Dr. Bennet Omalu. When he hears the news of the sudden death of former American footballer Mike Webster (David Morse), Dr. Bennet Omalu (Will Smith) takes it upon himself to investigate the cause. After studying Webster's brain scans, Omalu discovers that the footballer had suffered multiple repetitive head traumas over the years which had left him with severe brain damage. As he tries to get his superiors at the hospital and the National Football League to understand the dangers of head traumas in football, he finds he has a fight on his hands when the NFL reveal they have known the risks all along. The all-star cast also includes Alec Baldwin, Luke Wilson and Eddie Marsan.
