A Journey of Inspiration and Empowerment: The Stand Up Documentary Project



Our latest documentary project with Kids Acting With Purpose is more than just a film—it’s an exploration of resilience, unity, and the transformative power of music and storytelling. This unique collaboration highlights the profound impact of the iconic song “Stand Up” from the movie Harriet, using it as a powerful anthem that resonates deeply with the spirit of courage and community. Through interviews, behind-the-scenes moments, and a stunning music video, this documentary showcases how art empowers youth to rise, connect, and express themselves fully.


Directed by the talented Mrs. Shavonne Davis, this documentary combines heartfelt interviews with staff, passionate parents, and the gifted young participants who poured their energy and talent into every scene. The production team, driven by a shared commitment to meaningful storytelling, worked closely with Kids Acting With Purpose to ensure that each voice, story, and performance is captured authentically. These interviews reveal personal reflections on the impact of “Stand Up”—a song that has become a beacon of strength, unity, and resilience for the youth in our program.


At the heart of the documentary is a stunning music video set to “Stand Up,” woven together with dynamic acting scenes that celebrate the talent and spirit of each young performer. Under the visionary guidance of Mrs. Shavonne Davis, these scenes come alive with purpose and passion, blending movement, expression, and storytelling to create an unforgettable experience. Each performance radiates with authenticity, showcasing the unbreakable bonds formed through shared artistic creation. It’s a testament to the sense of community fostered within Kids Acting With Purpose, where every young artist is encouraged to find their voice and shine.


This project is a tribute not only to the song “Stand Up” but also to the enduring power of music as a catalyst for personal and collective growth. Watching these young people channel their energy into something so meaningful is a powerful reminder of how art can help us transcend challenges, connect with others, and draw inspiration from those who came before us. As these youth embrace the message of “Stand Up,” they are empowered to carry forward the values of courage, unity, and resilience, shaping a future where their voices are heard and celebrated.


The Stand Up documentary project stands as a proud accomplishment for Kids Acting With Purpose, a testament to our commitment to uplifting youth through storytelling, mentorship, and artistic expression. We invite you to watch this powerful journey unfold, to witness the joy and strength of our youth, and to be inspired by the impact that music and community can have on all of us.
