THE PAULIE AT ODDS
contributor EXPERIENCE
A A Rare Opportunity to Be Part of an Award-Winning Feature Film
Based on the acclaimed short film MIMMO & PAULIE, winner of multiple festival awards and starring David Zayas (Dexter, Oz), and Felix Solis (Ozark, The Rookie), PAULIE AT ODDS is now in development for production in 2026 — and for the first time ever, we’re opening the door for supporters, fans, and film lovers to contribute at accessible levels.
THE STORY: WHY THIS FILM MATTERS
Paulie at Odds explores a world where family, friendship, and loyalty collide with old beliefs and rigid ways - over a single day that changes everything – all wrapped within a “mob story” narrative.
The short film resonated so deeply that it won awards across multiple festivals — and the feature builds an even more gripping, intimate world.
Strong writing.
Real characters.
High emotional stakes.
This is the kind of film that lives long after the credits roll.
