Directed by Andrew Legge and co-written with Angeli Macfarlane, Lola stars Emma Appleton and Stefanie Martini as two sisters in WWII England who revive a machine
developed by their late father that allows them to receive broadcasts from
the future. Initially beguiled by 1960s and '70s music, the sisters decide
to put their machine to use in the war effort, with potentially disastrous
results.
Rory Fleck Byrne, Aaron Monaghan and Hugh O'Conor also
star.
Lola is in UK/ROI cinemas from April 7th.

The official synopsis reads:
In 1941, music-loving sisters Thomasina (Emma Appleton, Everything I Know About Love) and Martha (Stefanie Martini, Prime Suspect 1973) build a machine called LOLA which can intercept broadcasts from the future. While the sisters initially use the machine for small ventures like becoming the first fans of 1970s music, they soon realise that it may hold the key to defeating the Nazis. LOLA proves to be massively effective in shifting the tide of the war, but as Thomasina begins to become carried away with the level of power the machine holds over the future, the sisters soon discover the world-altering consequences of their actions.
