A blurb from Acorn Media about “Lilies”: Tough, sexy and heartbreaking, Lilies unsparingly depicts the often brutal realities of life in the 1920’s Britain, the bleak choices facing impoverished young women, and the fortifying power of love in its many forms.
Lilies is the story of 3 young women going through life in working-class Liverpool. A few years after World War I, the Moss family is a devout Irish Catholic family and the 3 women are wanting to get away and start there lives on their own. One dreams for acting in films the other sells corsets, but one runs the household because their mother passed away. This miniseries is quite good, sometimes realistically brutal in depicting the harshness and poverty of England just after the First World War. The miniseries is filmed entirely in Northern Ireland. The set includes a behind the scenes look at Lilies, a photo gallery and Cast Filmographies.
