e’Lollipop is the extraordinary story of two inseparable South African children, Tsepo (Muntu Ndebele) and his orphaned friend Jannie (Norman Knox). They meet when Jannie’s parents die tragically in a car accident in the Lesotho Mountains. Jannie is sent to a missionary station in Tsepo’s village where they become best friends as Jannie finds his place in his new home. Together with their dog Sugarball, life is full of childhood fun and antics until tragedy again strikes. Jannie, aged 3 years old, is seriously injured after one of their games goes terribly wrong. In the face of unbelievable adversity, Tsepo and his community pull together so that Jannie can get the treatment that he needs. A daunting challenge lies ahead; at what cost will Jannie survive?

Tsepo and Jannie’s inspirational story unfolds against the breathtaking backdrops of a dramatic African landscape and New York City in the mid-seventies.

Also starring Ken Gampu, Jose Ferrer, Simon Sabela and Karen Valentine, e’Lollipop is a life-changing story that reminds us of the true value of friendship, community, sacrifice and family - despite our color or creed. e’Lollipop is a true South African Classic of international calibre that transcended the boundaries of it’s day imposed on it by Apartheid.
