    Stand Up special edition DVD now available for preorder

    A special edition DVD of the high school wrestling documentary "Stand Up" is now available for preorder, with deliveries to be made in September.

    "Stand Up" chronicles a year in the life of the wrestling program at Central Dauphin East High School in central Pennsylvania. In 2014, the program hadn't had a state qualifier in five years. However, that year, the team had two seniors -- both best friends and rivals -- whose whole wrestling careers had built up to a quest for state championship glory.

    In addition to providing an insider look at a high school wrestling room and the athletes inside, this new "Stand Up" special edition DVD includes several hours of bonus material not previously available on the original documentary, including a Director's Commentary interview with filmmaker (and Central Dauphin East wrestling alum) Abdullah Abu-Mahfouz ... the "Can't Keep Me Down" music video ... and an "After Stand Up" video, updating viewers as to where the participants of the documentary are now. In addition, the special edition DVD also includes features that provide special insights into coaching -- and wrestling -- as well as a workout training series by Lamont Stanley.

    Additional bonus features included with the purchase of the "Stand Up" special edition DVD: digital downloads of wrestling music ... a free digital version of the film to watch on any device, anywhere ... and lifetime access to future content from "Stand Up."

    "The goal of 'Stand Up' is to inspire wrestlers to dig deep and find success," Abduallah Abu-Mahfouz told InterMat in a November 2016 interview.

    "I've had wrestling coaches express grievances -- having trouble getting kids to go out for wrestling, keeping them in the program, keeping them motivated," the young filmmaker continued. "Hopefully, wrestlers and coaches can use this film to propel themselves to greatness."

    Note: Individuals who were "$25 and plus Seed&Spark Early Access" supporters of "Stand Up" automatically receive a free copy of the DVD as soon as orders are shipped.

    To preorder a special edition DVD of "Stand Up" for shipment in September for $19.99, visit the documentary's official website.
