"Growing up with Barbie, I wasn't sure what to expect with this, but was pleasantly surprised. This documentary really shows the layers to the engineering and marketing behind the diverse/ body positive Barbie transition. Along with this, I think many people don't realize the cultural implications of the brand. People have been using dolls to act out life well before this brand, and most likely well after."
