Black - Briefcase full of diamonds spells trouble

This from Twitch:

Pierre Laffargue’s action film Black is one of the six Fantastic Fest titles playing at the 2009 SXSW Film Festival and Conference. In fact, the screening in March will represent the film’s world premiere. Black stars French rapper MC Jean Gab’1 (Banliueue 13 (District 13) and Banlieue 13) - Ultimatum. Jean Gab’1 plays the titular Senegalese bank-robber (born and raised in France) who plans on going straight after a botched heist. His cousin interrupts his brief retirement with a call from Dakar, where a briefcase full of diamonds presents a new opportunity.

Banlieue 13: Ultimatum - New trailer

Damien (Cyril Raffaelli) is a member of the police elite task force. As a special intervention unit officer and expert in martial arts, he is a master in the field of infiltration, and well versed in successfully completing his operations through rapid, precise and often strong-arm actions.

This time, the government has assigned him the most extreme expedition of his entire career: a weapon of mass destruction has been stolen by the most powerful gang of District B13.

Assigned to infiltrate the sector to defuse the bomb, Damien must join hands with Leïto (David Belle), whose sole goal is to save his sister, fallen into the hands of the same gang. He is, moreover, the only one who knows District B13 like the back of his hand.

But the story is not so simple. Who exactly works for who? Where are those who really pull the strings hiding? And who would really profit from this bomb?

Banlieue 13: Ultimatum - Lots of posters for parkour actioner

Banlieue 13: Ultimatum (or District 13: Ultimatum) is due out in France next month. The first one had some crazy Mirror's Edge style parkour stuntwork and this sequel looks like it is turning everything up to 11!

I posted the teaser trailer a while ago.
District 13, two years later. The government has changed, not the rest ... The wall of isolation - ever higher, ever greater and Beyond - has spread around towns ghettos and gangs that have proliferated further increased their influence. The traffic is now divided among five ethnic neighborhoods, each headed by a fearsome gang leader. More than ever determined to "settle the problem," the secret services voluntarily fire to the powder. Damien, a cop expert in martial arts, and Leito, able to sneak in every corner of the suburbs, make new team. Their goal: to save the city from chaos. Their program: Muscle and fighting for race-defying the laws of gravity.
