Showtimes August 15 - 20:
Every year, 200,000 Girl Scouts sell $800 million in Thin Mints, Adventurefuls, Lemon-Ups, and Toffee-tastics across America over a span of 6 weeks. Treating us to much more than the sugary snacks, Cookie Queens observes four scouts from various backgrounds as they set their sales goals and strive to reach them. From parking lots to schools, workplaces, social media sites, and television stations, it uses the microcosm of cookie-selling spaces to uncover fascinating truths about commerce, politics, and American childhood. Scouting and cookie selling are, after all, formative experiences, and through them, the girls are beginning to understand how the world operates and where they’re situated within it. An irresistibly charming eye-opener, Cookie Queens may leave you looking at your local troop in a whole new light.
