Overview

Thieves but Cute is an Egyptian comedy film that pairs two bumbling thieves, Hamid and Ismail, as they plot to rob a ground-floor jewelry store. The catch: the only way in is through the floor of the apartment directly above — home to Aziza and Essam, a couple whose unstable marriage is already one argument away from collapse. As the two thieves dig deeper — literally and figuratively — their covert operation collides with the couple's domestic chaos in a series of escalating comic misunderstandings, making this a delightful caper about the wrong heist in the worst possible apartment.
