Two sisters, Mariam and Noura, discover that inheritance laws—and their estranged brother—stand in the way of claiming their late father’s fortune. Armed with wit and determination, they embark on a bold scheme to take what’s theirs, navigating family chaos, societal expectations, and their own clashing personalities. In 'Thank You for Banking with Us,' director Laila Abbas crafts a sharp and poignant exploration of gender, tradition, and sisterhood in modern Palestine. With biting humour and heartfelt moments, the film is a vibrant ode to resilience and the unbreakable bonds between women defying a system stacked against them.
'This simple story illuminates daily battles for women across the globe every day. In the end, “Thank You For Banking With Us” is a charming, personal look at a tragic system.' - Next Best Picture
