Even since Lolly’s older brother Jermaine was killed during an act of gang violence, his feelings swing from mad to sad with no in-between. The only comfort Lolly feels is when he’s building with Legos. When a staff member at the community center in the Harlem, New York, projects where he lives provides him with his own space to build, Lolly is able to temporarily shield himself from his grief and the dangers he and his friend Vega face on the street every day.  (Vermont DCF Award nominee, 2018-2019)
