Now streaming on Apple TV, Grapefruit (written, directed & starring Chase Joilet) is a film I was honored to contribute hand-drawn main titles to a couple years back. I relish these opportunities to craft each letter on paper, truly communicating with the page.
Grapefruit - Main credits design by Sean David Christensen.
The story centers around Travis (Joliet), a man who is forced to go back to his childhood home after a sudden and bitter divorce. After deciding to join AA meetings, he ends up meeting Billie (Steph Barkley), a woman who is wildly alive but is probably dealing with some trauma of her own. The two strike up a friendship that fully acknowledges their shortcomings and their wanting to become better people.
