About the Film
LILLY is a dramatic feature film starring Patricia Clarkson, John Benjamin Hickey and Thomas Sadoski, about an Alabama tire factory worker who fights for justice after 20 years of being mistreated and cheated by the company.
An emotional journey of heartbreak and euphoria, LILLY is the story of an ordinary woman who stands up to powerful corporate and political forces, underscoring the impact a single, courageous person can have on society.
Based on the remarkable life of Lilly Ledbetter, directed by Rachel Feldman, LILLY won BEST of the FEST at the 2025 Palm Springs International Film Festival and was awarded the Anti Defamation League’s STAND UP AWARD at the 2025 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
Filmmaker Rachel Feldman received the NYWIFT Ravenal Foundation Feature Film Grant for the project.
