Family, redemption, and small-town politics—why this is our North Star.


Every story needs a compass. For Grandfella, it’s this: Family, redemption, and small-town politics make the mob look like child’s play. It tells us tone (warm, wry), stakes (personal > criminal), and target (forgiveness, not glamor). We’re building scenes that start at the dinner table and ripple through council chambers and church basements. You won’t see gun porn—you’ll see a man trying to earn grace one hard conversation at a time. That’s where the laughs sneak in, too.
