Messy Lola

2026-03-02 · Runtime unavailable · Not rated

Comedy · Drama

Lola is an expert at managing the mess—just not her own. She's a reluctant mother, a flighty romantic partner, and perpetually annoyed by her insufferable coworkers. Her carefully controlled chaos is upended by the arrival of Kayla, a beacon of millennial optimism, who represents everything Lola is not. When Kayla moves in next door and then into her office, Lola's defenses are breached. Her unwavering kindness and success holds up a mirror, forcing Lola to ask a terrifying question: at what point do we stop blaming the world for our unhappiness and start untangling the mess we've made of ourselves?
