Poor Sasha(1997)

Poor Sasha is a family film about a resourceful young girl who hatches an audacious plan to rob her mother's bank. Her motive is surprisingly tender: she wants to force her workaholic mother to quit and finally spend New Year's Eve at home. What begins as a desperate scheme to reclaim her mother's attention spirals into an unexpectedly charming heist, complete with childlike logic and genuine heart. The film balances comedy with the very real loneliness of a child whose parent is perpetually absent, exploring themes of family, sacrifice, and what it truly means to be present. As Sasha's plan unfolds, she learns valuable lessons about love, responsibility, and the lengths we go to for those we care about most.
