Mayfly
feature script

 

Mayfly is an inspiring film with strong feminist themes and a compelling plot. Lilian is a strong protagonist because she's the underdog with many obstacles to overcome and she beats the odds and proves that women can do anything a man can do. The ending is so satisfying.“

The true story of the first woman to ever design, build and fly an airplane.

This is a screenplay that I am very proud of. I worked on it for a few years, making sure that the message was balanced and that the real-life figure of Lilian Bland was represented in a respectful, uplifting manner.

I absolutely adore the true story and find it astounding that Lilian Bland’s story isn’t widely known. If you would like to read this screenplay, please drop me an email and I will get back to you:

Also, here are some images from the Lilian Bland from when she actually built the Mayfly:
