Stand Your Ground
Their town, his war.
Directed by Fansu Njie
Produced by Highfield Grange Studios, Daniel Stisen Productions
A dark, high-octane revenge thriller that weaponizes self-defense law into a brutal vendetta, driven by grief and violence rather than moral complexity.
Former Special Forces operative, Jack Johnson, uses the Stand Your Ground law to seek vengeance for his wife’s murder, igniting a brutal war against a local crime lord’s family and ending in an explosive showdown.
