About this submission
This mini-documentary presents the impact that Pop Culture and the American dream have on young girls. In the early 2000s, there was a rapid growth of reality TV, digital music is coming, princes and pop princesses are on top of the world, Apple is starting its technological revolution and gossip magazines are everywhere. All or most middle-class households in North America have access to cable television. Girls born in the 1990s are among the first generations to be connected. They see the world differently even though they don't realize it yet.
