From Ignite Films:

"“Due to the continuing unexpected supply chain issues in Europe, we are experiencing a longer than expected delay on receiving stock than we had initially thought. We understand this may be disappointing, but rest assured we’re working around the clock with our production partner, Arrow Films in the UK, to get you your disc as soon as possible.

We don’t anticipate the delay to be too much longer. We will alert you as soon as we have confirmation that the discs have been shipped to our warehouse. We greatly appreciate your patience as we strive to deal with these ongoing worldwide supply chain issues.”"
