Molly, a young woman released from prison battles to regain custody of her children. When she reconnects with her childhood friend Amina, a fellow single mother trying to make a life for her family, the two women join forces and take destiny into their own hands.

Lollipop is a film about our capacity for joy even in life’s hardest moments, about finding strength through sisterhood, and what it means to have the unwavering courage to fight for your family, against a system that won't listen, even when you’ve got nothing left.

Written and directed by BAFTA Breakthrough Daisy-May Hudson, and featuring an all-female cast of mostly non-actors, Lollipop will break your heart and then put it back together, stronger and with more hope than ever.
