  3. Lela & Co.


When Lela marries and is relocated to an unnamed country in the throes of civil war, she finds herself isolated, locked up, and eventually enslaved. Based on a true story, LELA & CO. unravels a story of war, oppression and sex trafficking through language that flits from colloquial naivety to sharp wit.

LELA & CO. is a harrowing journey which ultimately explores the power of hope and the strength of the human spirit, brought to life by Factory 449 company member Felicia Curry, and directed by Factory 449 company member and Helen Hayes Award-winner Rick Hammerly.

Ages: Mature Audiences - Not suitable for children. Contains violence, explicit language and sexual content.
