Tiny Shoulders: Rethinking Barbie is an American documentary film that premiered on April 27, 2018 on Hulu. Directed, written, and produced by Andrea Blaugrund Nevins, it explores the creation of the Barbie doll, the effect it has had on culture, and its evolution over the decades. For years, Barbie for some can spark unrealistic expectations for younger girls and even cause body image issues. According to Time, this petite, tall and curvy doll known as Barbie, constitutes as a major figure of the feminist movement and symbolizes male oppression. She has sparked debate and controversy for a variety of reasons which this documentary aims to capture.
