Simple Heist: Series 01

When two women find themselves overlooked and underappreciated as they face their older years, they resort to drastic measures to get payback. Jenny (Lotta Tejle, The Sandhamn Murders) is a teacher struggling to stay afloat during a messy divorce, while her best friend, gastroenterologist Cecilia (Sissela Kyle, Miss Friman's War), has financial problems from a failed stock investment. After Cecilia learns of a bank robbery plan from a dying patient, she convinces Jenny that a crime spree is just what they need to take control of their lives. As the robbery sets off a chain of events exposing them to blackmail, car chases, and a dangerous biker gang, Jenny and Cecilia quickly learn that money won't solve all their problems. Rich with dry humor, this Swedish-language comedy-drama combines crime caper with sharp social critique.
