A landmark moment for women’s health storytelling will unfold in Cannes this spring as the documentary, “sHEALed,” hosts its world premiere in a private theater during the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.
Each year, the Cannes Film Festival transforms the French Riviera into one of the most important gathering points for the global film industry, drawing filmmakers, producers, distributors, media, and cultural leaders from around the world. During this time, the city also becomes a hub for private screenings, premieres, and industry gatherings taking place throughout Cannes alongside the festival’s official program.
Produced by Lolli Brands Entertainment, the 59-time award-winning studio behind “Biohack Yourself” and other globally distributed health documentaries, the project is being described as one of the most ambitious female health documentaries ever assembled.
The premiere will feature a pink carpet screening and an invite-only gathering of medical experts, researchers, founders, and global wellness leaders, creating an intimate environment for high-level conversation and collaboration.
Following the screening, the evening will continue with an exclusive VIP afterparty and a cast Q&A at the FilmUSA Pavilion, extending the conversation around women’s health and longevity with filmmakers and special guests.
Curated With the “Crème de la Crème” of Women’s Health
The documentary was carefully curated with the guidance of co-producer JJ Virgin, a Celebrity Nutrition Expert, Fitness Hall of Famer, and four-time New York Times bestselling author.
Virgin helped ensure that the film’s contributors represent the highest level of credentialed experts in women’s health, personally assisting in identifying and vetting many of the specialists featured in the documentary.
Through an invite-only casting process, the filmmakers assembled a group of clinicians, scientists, and pioneers working across hormones, metabolic health, fertility, trauma recovery, autoimmune disease, and preventative medicine. Once word spread about the project, the interest from experts hoping to participate quickly grew.
“The response from experts wanting to be part of this documentary was extraordinary,” said “sHEALed” executive producer, Anthony Lolli.
“We ultimately had to close casting even though many more leaders wanted to join.”
A Three-Part Exploration of Women’s Health
Unlike traditional documentaries, “sHEALed” is structured as a three-part film series that explores the complete lifecycle of women’s health. The documentary walks audiences through the major stages of a woman’s life, addressing key challenges while highlighting preventative strategies and solutions.
The mission of the project centers on education.
“This film is about helping women understand their health earlier so they can make informed decisions throughout their lives,” TereZa Hakobyan-Lolli, “sHEALed” executive producer, shared.
“Prevention is cheaper than cure.”
The film aims to provide knowledge that many women say they wish they had earlier in life.
While the documentary focuses on female health, the project also educates men.
Understanding hormonal cycles, metabolic changes, reproductive health, and emotional shifts allows men to better support the women in their lives.
A Unique Narrative Approach, A Powerful Impact
“sHEALed” introduces a storytelling device rarely seen in documentary filmmaking.
Throughout the film, Love Lolli meets older versions of herself across different stages of life, receiving guidance from her future self based on the lessons uncovered during the documentary.
The structure blends storytelling and education in a format designed to resonate with families and younger audiences.
Early focus groups included mothers, wives, couples, and families who viewed preview versions of the film. The response was unanimous. Many viewers said they wished they had access to this knowledge earlier in life and planned to share the film with their children.
Built-In Global Anticipation
Unlike many independent films that appear suddenly at festivals, “sHEALed” has already been building anticipation for nearly a year.
Since filming wrapped, the filmmakers have released short educational clips and interviews across their media platforms while discussing the project in Biohack Yourself Magazine, which is distributed in more than 5,200 retail stores across the U.S. and Canada.
This ongoing exposure has created a growing audience eager to see the completed documentary.
A Media Ecosystem That Keeps the Conversation Alive
Lolli Brands Entertainment operates a hybrid model that blends filmmaking with media publishing through Biohack Yourself Media.
With journalists, magazine distribution, digital content, and podcasts continuously discussing the films, the documentaries continue reaching new audiences long after their premiere.
Unlike traditional production companies that release a film and move on, the filmmakers remain deeply invested in the educational mission of each project.
The creators often describe their approach in comparison to major media owners who control their own distribution ecosystems.
The Washington Post: Owned by Jeff Bezos
Los Angeles Times: Owned by Patrick Soon-Shiong
NY Timed: Owned by the Ochs-Sulzberger family
Fox: Owned by the Murdochs
The Lollis operate Biohack Yourself Media, allowing their films to remain part of an ongoing global conversation around health, longevity, and preventative medicine.
A Defining Moment for Women’s Health
As global awareness around women’s health continues to accelerate, Anthony and TereZa believe “sHEALed” arrives at a pivotal moment. The project aims to bring clarity, education, and real solutions to conversations happening across medicine, media, and society.
The world premiere of “sHEALed” will take place on May 15, 2026, in Cannes, France, with a private theater screening and invite-only pink carpet event. The evening will also include a VIP reception and cast Q&A, bringing together filmmakers, health innovators, and special guests during one of the most significant weeks in global cinema.
