Cookie Queens

Directed by Alysa Nahmias
Documentary; 91 minutes

“Cookie Queens serves up an eminently accessible and easily meme-able serving of American-girl cuteness, featuring a diverse cast of well-chosen young women.” —Leslie Felperin, The Hollywood Reporter

Every year, some 200,000 Girl Scouts raise over $800,000 for the organization through cookie sales. This documentary explores the joys, pressures, and tensions of cookie season through the eyes of four young sellers as they pursue their goals and navigate ambition, friendship, and family support. Executive produced by Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Cookie Queens is a celebration of girlhood and the complexities that come with it.
