Little Robbers
Original title: Mazie laupitaji
German title: Die kleinen Bankräuber
Little Robby and his older sister Louisa live with their parents in a nice apartment. All feel good. But then the father becomes unemployed. In order not to lose their home, the family goes to the bank. While the parents are dealing with business matters, the children are shown around in the noble building. Later Robby and Louisa learn that the bank did not grant their family any loan postponement. So the apartment has to be sold again. Robby and Louisa do not like this idea at all. They plan a robbery, so to say a real „bank robbing game“ and hit upon a clever trick. They know exactly where the dosh lies dormant, a whole million! Their plan goes like clockwork. The children just did not expect that the bank employees themselves are gangsters.

"(…) eine Handlung, die geschickt die Balance hält zwischen Familienzusammenhalt, punktueller Gesellschaftskritik und einem Abenteuer, das viele Kinder gerne selbst erleben würden." (Rolf-Rüdiger Hamacher, Film-Dienst 21/2010)
