It’s Girl Scout Cookie season, and four tenacious girls strive to be a top-selling “Cookie Queen,” navigating an $800 million business in which innocence and ambition collide.

Doors open at 2:00 p.m. and the screening will begin at 2:30 p.m.


Directed by: Alysa Nahmias (Gallatin ’01)

Produced by: Michael Dweck, Gregory Kershaw, Alysa Nahmias, Jennifer Sims

Director of Photography: Antonio Cisneros (Tisch ’08)
