Movie About Barbies

I just watched a short (53 minute) documentary by Susan Stern called Barbie Nation: An Unauthorized Tour. The film covers body issues, consumerism, queerness, identity, gender, and, what really stands out for me, the role of childhood dreams. Every Barbie-related story and articulation, introduced through interviews and the filmmaker's narration, was fascinating. Incredible!!

Here is the link to the movie at Evergreen's library [1] which will have its copy back as soon as I return it this week.

And here is the link for it on the IMDB [2].
