About
Who we are
Lolli Brands Entertainment is an award-winning independent studio built for one purpose: to make the people doing extraordinary work in human health impossible to ignore.
We did not begin as a production company. We began as a family failed by the systems we trusted, and we did the only thing we knew how to do in response: document the truth as we lived it. Anthony Lolli filmed the 125 pounds coming off. TereZa Hakobyan-Lolli filmed her way back from a postpartum collapse to two bikini world titles.
We make feature documentaries, original television series and branded entertainment, and we keep every long-form conversation in full. 18 documentaries, 68 awards, 134 festival placements, accepted on 36 platforms in 49 countries.
To be seen, heard, trusted and understood.

How we tell stories
Some people document their lives. We make documentaries of our life’s journeys.
Our films begin in our own lived experience, and the audience learns alongside us: a participant, not a spectator. We follow our curiosity, not our fears. Mainstream or no stream.
