Cookie Queens

Opens on August 7

Director: Alysa Nahmias Run Time: 91 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 2026

Directed by Alysa Nahmias, Cookie Queens is a coming-of-age documentary that follows four Girl Scouts from different backgrounds during the intense six-week Girl Scout Cookie season. As the girls pursue ambitious sales goals, the film explores the excitement, pressure, competition, family dynamics, and entrepreneurial lessons woven into one of America’s most recognizable youth traditions. What begins as a seemingly wholesome annual fundraiser becomes a surprisingly revealing look at childhood ambition, capitalism, confidence, and community.

“The most heart-warming, crowd-pleasing film at Sundance this year.” — Vogue
