LILLY is a political drama that chronicles the remarkable life of Lilly Ledbetter, the woman about whom President Obama named his first piece of legislation. The magnificent Academy Award Nominee / Golden Globe Winner Patricia Clarkson plays the title role, Tony award winner John Benjamin Hickey is her beloved husband Charles, and Tony award winner Thomas Sadoski portrays Lilly’s brilliant civil rights attorney Jon Goldfarb.
A roller coaster ride of suspense, heartbreak and euphoria, LILLY tells the story of sexual harassment that morphs into David & Goliath legal battles, as a factory supervisor, wife, mother and grandmother transforms into a warrior for justice, single-handedly changing an American law. LILLY captures the zeitgeist of today as women all over the world challenge patriarchal systems of oppression and inequity.
LILLY’s U.S. festival tour will travel from October 2024 - March 2025, followed by sponsored social impact screenings and our theatrical release in April. For more information visit: www.LillyMovie.com and follow @LillyMovie on IG & FB.
