Coronation Girls

Coronation Girls

In the summer of 1953, Garfield Weston put together a sponsorship to send 50 girls from rural communities across Canada to London to witness the Coronation procession of Queen Elizabeth. The experience transformed them instantly and forever. Now, they are helping each other learn how to die - but not before returning one last time where they have tea at Buckingham Palace and meet King Charles III
