Thelma

USA, Switzerland 2024 | 98 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Thelma Post isn’t your average 93-year-old grandmother – she’s tenacious, determined, and on a mission. After getting conned by a scammer pretending to be her grandson, she teams up with a friend (and his motorized scooter) on a wild adventure to take back what’s hers. The feature directorial debut of Josh Margolin, Thelma is a action-comedy that gives veteran Oscar®️ nominee June Squibb (NEBRASKA) her first leading role. Thelma puts a clever spin on movies like MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, shining the spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero. With infectious humor, Margolin employs the familiar tropes of the action genre in hilarious, age-appropriate ways to tackle aging with agency.
