My Grandfather Charles Manson

My Grandfather Charles Manson is scheduled for release on July 22, 2026. The film follows Sophia, a woman who sets out to identify her unknown grandfather and learns he is Charles Manson. The discovery draws her into contact with surviving Manson family members and leads her to previously unreleased records and audio recordings that she accesses in part through genetic genealogy research. As her investigation deepens, her relationship with her father — who bears physical similarities to Manson — comes under increasing strain. The film is structured around Sophia's first-person reckoning with her family history and the question of inherited identity.
