Stella Does Tricks is a 1996 British drama film about a young Glaswegian girl, played by Kelly Macdonald, working as a prostitute in London.

[4] The film has been described as "an uncompromisingly feminist text, in which the Baby Doll turns Avenger",[5] and by Lawrence van Gelder of The New York Times as a "bleak, perceptive portrait of the prostitute as a young girl torn between the need for genuine love and a career of sexual exploitation".

[7] The screenplay was written by the novelist A. L. Kennedy, and draws in part on one of her earlier stories, Friday Payday.

[4][8] Cinematography was by frequent Ken Loach collaborator Barry Ackroyd.

[9] Stella is one of a number of young prostitutes working for the pimp Mr. Peters in London, having run away from her Glasgow home where she was sexually abused by her father, a stand-up comedian.
