We The Party will be available via video-on-demand on July 19 and DVD will be available in stores July 31.
The DVD and Blu-ray bonus features include a feature-length commentary by writer-director Mario Van Peebles and actors Mandela Van Peebles and Makaylo Van Peebles, 4 music videos from the film (“Truth,” “She’s a Vegan,” “A Light at the End of the Tunnel,” and “Forever”), and the theatrical trailer.
A revealing look at contemporary youth culture, writer-director Mario Van Peebles' WE THE PARTY shows teenagers as they are, not as adults would like them to be. Set amidst the latest trends in music, dance and fashion, WE THE PARTY is a colorful, cutting-edge comedy set in an ethnically diverse Los Angeles high school during America's first black president. The film focuses on five friends as they deal with romance, money, prom, college, sex, bullies, facebook, fitting in, standing out, and finding themselves. Evoking such classic teen comedies as The Breakfast Club and House Party but with an attitude and style all its own, WE THE PARTY captures the hopes, confusion, challenges and dreams of today's teenagers as they plunge headlong into an uncertain future.

"A Mario Van Peebles film, you really don't need much more than that to go see it. Especially when you add Tiny Lister, Snoop Dogg, Ben J, and almost the entire Van Peebles family." – Vibe.com
"It's hard to dislike Party; the tempo is brisk and the message — that success stems from more than a car and bling — is hard to argue against. It should resonate with any parents coping with high school kids, particularly rowdy boys." --USAToday.com
