Standout: The Ben Kjar Story

Film synopsis

Born with Crouzon Syndrome (a rare facial difference), doctors warned Ben Kjar that his life would be defined by limitations and ridicule. Despite that prognosis, Ben longed for an ordinary life that always felt out of reach. With time, constant bullying and painful surgeries ignited a fire within him. Wrestling became his proving ground, where he transformed difference into strength. But as new challenges arise, Ben must choose: fade into “normal,” or fully embrace his difference and stand out.
