Thieves KG2 (Template:Lang-ar, Haramiyya fi KG2; "Thieves in Kindergarten") is an Egyptian film directed by Sandra Nashaat and screenwritten by Bilal Fadhel.[1]

Plot

Two thieves, Hasan and Sibae’i, plan to rob the safe in the Kaitby Fortress in Alexandria, but the police capture Sibae’i, who asks Hasan to take care of Nasma, his daughter; if he does this, Sibae’i will not say that Hasan conspired in the robbery attempt. Hasan meets Nasma's teacher, Miss Reem, and the two become romantically involved. Miss Reem does not know of Hasan's history.[1] The film's story settings are Cairo, Alexandria, Port Said, Luxor, and Aswan.[2]

Cast

Reception

After Eid al-Adha the film screened at 30 cinemas in Cairo and other Egyptian cities. Fewer than three months after its release, the film generated over 10 million Egyptian pounds in revenues at the Egyptian box office, where it was the highest performing film in that period.[1]

Nur Elmessiri of Al Ahram Weekly wrote that "Egypt has proven that it is capable of producing the cool-cute male, the attractive-cute female and the sassy/bratty-but-cute child, all recognisable members of global pop culture."[4]
