"Cookie Queens shines a light on an iconic American tradition that millions of people recognise but rarely stop to consider. The film is a funny and deeply affecting portrait, and we are excited to share it with a broad audience in theatres soon."
"As a former Girl Scout myself, with my mom as my troop leader, I have a personal affinity for this film. It is one of the most powerful and meaningful depictions of something that is an American tradition and rooted in nostalgia."
Cookie Queens, a coming-of-age documentary about the Girl Scouts cookie-selling tradition, has been acquired by Roadside Attractions for US theatrical distribution. Directed by Alysa Nahmias and produced by Archewell Productions, Beautiful Stories, and AJNA Films, the film premiered at Sundance and will screen at SXSW before summer release. The Duchess of Sussex, a former Girl Scout, executive-produced the project and expressed personal connection to it, calling it a powerful depiction of an American tradition rooted in nostalgia. Roadside Attractions' co-presidents praised the film as a funny and deeply affecting portrait that illuminates an iconic tradition.
