A man and a woman switch their bodies and try to handle their occupations as a soccer trainer and a psychologist.
For 15 years, Alex and Teresa’s marriage has worked perfectly, they have raised a daughter, despite the fact that the two are actually fundamentally different. He hangs up his soccer shoes and becomes a coach, she opens a practice as a psychotherapist. But now the well is poisoned: they argue over every little thing. During a thunderstorm, the unbelievable happens: When the lightning strikes, Alex and Teresa swap bodies. Now things get really chaotic.
“Swap Roles doesn’t shy away from the clichés and doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but is still refreshingly funny. The film uses simple, wonderfully acted means to expose how differently the sexes behave, understand each other and are seen by the outside world.” – Kino-Zeit
“Entertaining body-swapping comedy with convincing lead actors.” – Filmstarts.de
“Thanks to the good performances by Mina Tander and Wotan Wilke Möhring, film looks credible throughout.” – Wessels Filmkritik
