Abstract:
The connections that bind family members together are intangible tethers,
unseen forces that can push together incompatible people and tie them together like
magnetic chains. In order words: family is a mess. Lola-Anne Webcroft, although she’d
much prefer you just call her Lola, has to experience this first hand, as her family crises
tend to always overwrite her personal life. No matter what she does, she can’t escape
the family she hates and cannot be with the family she wants, and the line between
grows ever more blurry. So she leaves it all to become her own person. But you know
how this goes. You can never leave your family.
Just Lola is the story of how are our upbringing marks us, and no matter how much we
want to escape our past, we have to face that dysfunctional music.
