Official Trailer for UK Motherhood Drama 'Lollipop' with Posy Sterling

"You can take whatever you want from me... You're never going to take my child." MetFilm in the UK has unveiled an official trailer for Lollipop, a drama from social realism filmmaker Daisy-May Hudson. This premiered at the 2024 Edinburgh Film Festival in Scotland, and opens in the UK this summer in cinemas nationwide. When young mum Molly is released from prison after serving four months, she assumes it will be a matter of hours before she can pick up her children from foster care. Instead, Molly finds herself in the mother of all catch-22s: she can’t get housing because she doesn’t have her kids living with her; but she can’t get them back without a roof over her head. When Molly reconnects with her childhood friend, and fellow single mother, Amina, the two women join forces and take destiny into their own hands... Starring Posy Sterling as Molly and Idil Ahmed as Amina. This earned great reviews at the fest: "Heartbreaking and heartwarming in turn, while never giving into emotional manipulation, Lollipop celebrates women’s resilience, ingenuity, and strength in the face of systemic oppression." That sounds good. Have a look below. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Daisy-May […]
