Synopsis
A distinctly American story told with heart and humor, “Ready, Set, Bag!” is about regular folks who find fulfillment in their work, always challenge themselves to do better, and take care not to crush the eggs. We all shop at the grocery store and the checker or bagger is often the only personal contact we have. It is here at the end of the checkout aisle that “Ready, Set, Bag!” chronicles the triumphs and challenges eight state champions experience on their road to the title of Best Bagger in America, and their journey to be the best they can be.
