Seriously, the addictively sweet treats are an annual threat to our weight loss agenda. And the Girl Scouts selling them? They\u2019re pretty fearless salespeople, as well. The whole Girl Scout Cookie practice gets put under the microscope in Cookie Queens, a buzzy documentary that premiered earlier this year at Sundance.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Cookie Queens lists Meghan Markle and Prince Harry among its exec-producers, which has put an added spotlight on the film. Behind the camera is Alysa Nahmias, a producer and director of multiple acclaimed documentaries.<\/p>\n<p>The film centers on four Girl Scouts and the unique challenges they face while trying to sell the most boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. I mean, how hard can that be? Just tell us it\u2019s cookie season and take our money, that\u2019s how it usually works. My hope is that if they screen it for us, each seat will have a box of Samoas beneath it.<\/p>\n<p>SYNOPSIS: A celebration of girlhood and the complexities that come with it, Cookie Queens is a coming-of-age story about the joys, pressures, and tensions woven into one of America\u2019s most cherished rituals: Girl Scout Cookie season.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nnSQS43Eil8\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Roadside Attractions<\/a> will release Cookie Queens in theaters on August 7th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Is there anyone out there who doesn\u2019t love Girl Scout Cookies?
