MICHIGAN PREMIERE. 44 Pages is a portrait of an American icon – the venerable Highlights magazine, family-owned since its inception in 1946. This charming documentary follows the creation of the magazine's 70th anniversary issue, from the first editorial meeting to its arrival in homes nine months later. The Highlights staff works tirelessly each month to produce a packed magazine, free of advertisements, for the world's most important people: children. Now, as they fight to stay relevant in a changing world, the editorial team grapples with technology and the expansion of the Highlights digital footprint while also addressing social issues like transgenderism, same-sex couples, and racial sensitivity. If you’ve ever received one of the billion issues of Highlights delivered worldwide, or if you believe in Fun with a Purpose®, this documentary is for you.
