THE FILM
Excerpt from lillymovie.com
LILLY is a timely, political thriller based on the remarkable life of Fair Pay icon Lilly Ledbetter to commence principal photography October 2021 in Atlanta starring the glorious actor Patricia Clarkson. LILLY is a dramatic feature film in the tradition of other socially relevant movies such as Silkwood, The Insider, Erin Brockovich, Philadelphia, and Spotlight, and can garner large audiences, affect culture, and contend for awards.
The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act of 2009 was the first piece of legislation that President Obama signed. While many people are familiar with Lilly’s legal and political achievements, our film is a heartbreaking family narrative illuminating the personal toll of challenging entrenched bastions of power, the story folks don’t know.
