Run time: 80 min.
You may not think about it, but somewhere in the country lives the nation’s best grocery sacker. The film follows contestants as they prepare for the National Grocery Bagging Competition in Las Vegas. Using the competition as a backdrop, the film delves into the lives of eight diverse individuals and reveals a slice of Americana often overlooked and taken for granted. Da Silva and Jacob’s fast-paced and fun film is sure to leave you smiling.
