What happens in Cash Queens?

When a single mom, Rosalie (Marder), learns that she and her kids will have to live on 30 euros a week (about $35) in order to pay off her incarcerated husband’s debt, she concocts a plan: Rob 100,000 euros from the bank where she works as a receptionist, pay off the debt, and live happily ever after. Her best friend, the chaotic massage therapist Kim (Marchal), jumps on board, hoping to use her cut to make her dream of opening a salon come true. Rosalie’s cousin, Alex (Deslauriers), demands to get in on the plan, too, contributing her skills as an architecture student to plot their plan of attack. They also recruit their friend Sofia (Ayadi), another single mom who’s desperate for cash to fix up her house after social services came knocking. Sofia’s hard to convince — her brother, Malik (Outalbali), is a police officer, after all — but she opts in after losing her job.

As the foursome run through their strategy, they decide to disguise themselves with fake beards and voice modifiers to appear more intimidating. In a test run, they realize how badly they need a getaway car, and that’s how Kim’s client Chloé (Arbillot) gets involved. It helps that Chloé’s desperate to get time away from her husband, the town’s unscrupulous mayor, Michel (Damiens). 

Armed with a plan, the newly minted friend group prepares for the job. Their disguises could go a long way in concealing their identities, but do they have what it takes to pull off this — or any — heist? Or will the allure of this much money, their less-than-savory connections to a local mob boss (Ézéchiel), and the town’s corrupt leadership break them apart before they can truly become cash queens?

Is Cash Queens based on a true story?

Yes, the series is inspired by the Gang des Amazones, five women who robbed seven banks in the South of France starting in 1989.
