Lola sets out to run an errand for Casey, involving delivering some crucial prints for a business meeting with Danielle, who is also Casey's ex.

ReleaseThe film premiered on June 19, 2009 at the San Francisco Frameline LGBT Film Festival, and went on to screen at over 100 additional festivals.[1] ReceptionAfter Ellen reviewer Danielle Riendeau called the film "a combination of Run Lola Run and Groundhog Day", that "plays out like a twisty, lighter Run Lola Run with a massive dose of queerness", and described some of the photographic sequences as "funny, campy and wildly imaginative".[2] The CinemaQueer review likewise found the film "sweet and likable", and reviewer Michael D. Klemm felt that "first time filmmakers Ellen Seidler and Megan Siler undoubtedly had a ball making this film and it shows".[3] Autostraddle called And Then Came Lola a "funny guilty pleasure indie flick set in the super gay-ed up streets of San Francisco".[4] Awards
